Carl Edwards Crash at Talladega. The crash and him running across the finish line is only in the first 1:30. No need to watch the whole 4+ min.. unless you want to.

Edward wasn’t real. Oh, he might have seemed real, something we believed in, which made him real. But in the true meaning of the word real, no, Edward was not.

He has, however, taught all of us a lot: how to be a friend, how to have fun and how to eat…

Friday Thoughts. How brave are you?


There is something that I see everywhere. Unsatisfied people.

When I think about it, I wonder if it a natural progression in the order of things. Are we all at this place because of the issues we so vehemently felt needed to be addressed 35 years ago; when the world was in/…

Note from Wendy: I had a different word for today; one I may save for another day. Lately, I have been trying to be uplifting and fun instead of my usual thought-provoking self. I want all of you to think, but there is such heaviness in the world that it’s toughRead full post »

I saw the Birds of Paradise growing in San Diego when I was there a couple of weeks ago. They are so strangely beautiful; oddly entrancing, like a freaky side-show act growing out of the ground. You are compelled to stare. This thing truly reminds me of what a genetically modified/…

Early Spring Morning. A Poem.


My feet were cold.

I could sense the cool air with each breath. I buried my face in the pillow to warm my nose and pulled my knees to my chest to warm my body beneath the covers.

I could see the light coming from the window was bright and clear: hors d’oeuvres/…

A Silhouette of Imperfections


From me (my mother) to my daughter (to me): a generational observation

I didn’t know what to do with her. She is clearly beautiful. Even from birth. Blond hair, blue eyes (hazel eyes), light skin, you’d have thought I had her made custom. I had others who were round and chunky. She/…

San Diego is beautiful. What I saw. I only stayed in the downtown area. It was a busy weekend.

What I heard was remarkable. I heard silence; walking in between the city buildings and seeing traffic and people talking and sitting at sidewalk restaurants and turning a corner to hear nothing. We/…

The Waiting List


What if this is the vacation?

What if this life we are living is the relief; the relaxation; the beach?

What if somewhere (wherever) we are all on a huge waiting list to be born here?

If you knew this were true, would you change anything about how you live?

Would you look at things/…

Today, we are in the mid 1800s. On the east coast of the United States (all 30-something of them; we gained a state nearly every year or two during that time) on the coast of Rhode Island.
