Light and Shadow ~ The Place Where We’re All One

Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be.

The words below, Light and Shadow, weren’t so much inspired by the Martin Luther King, Jr. quote to the right, but as I began typing out a comment on the Facebook post it was attached to, these words came out instead. The MLK quote reminds me of the Hindi word, […]

Matches and the eternal sunshine of the spotless soul ~ Lawrence of Arabia

Delusions of Grandeur

A Soldier of the Great War by Mark Helprin

Here’s something for "Perfection ", Peter.

The Raft at Gilford Beach

Summers in New Hampshire provide a teenager with blissfully warm weather and an abundance of distractions from the boredom that seems to accompany the day-to-day existence of the young. There were the streams in which I’d fish for trout, and the marinas filled with pickerel, and Weirs Beach with its […]
