And Your Point Is?
250. And Your Point Is? When my grandson Zack was about 12, I was explaining something to him and I’ll have to admit that I was going on and on about it. He listened and paid attention, and when I finally came to an…
LOVE in Stained Glass
249. LOVE in Stained Glass I have a wonderful stained glass “Love” piece hanging in my bedroom window. It was Mother’s and it says “LOVE” in vibrant letters. It’s based on the steel sculpture by Robert Indiana and found at the Indianapolis Museum of…
Love Tucked Around
248. Love Tucked Around In the 80’s I was looking for a house for my mother, my youngest daughter Dara, and myself and found one on North Broadway in Nyack, NY. It was known all around Nyack as the Waldron house for they had…
Forgiveness

243. Time for Silence I’m trying out some silence times this Lent. I’ve already been doing some morning silence but in a way it’s a busy kind of silence—it’s “walking” a lap labyrinth, it’s coloring a mandala, it’s writing a reflection. Now comes an…
Temptation Today
242. Temptation Today In this season of Lent we read scriptures of the temptations of Jesus. And I was surprised a number of years ago when a seven-year-old grandson claimed to know about temptation. The story is in poem form. — A Pack of…
Four Letters of Love
241. Four Letters of Love On Valentine’s Day the love thing can get a little syrupy and sometimes on other days it’s made to sound so simple—just love. But it’s tough and it’s easy and it’s painful and it’s wonderful. So give it and…
