I feel like I’m in limbo land, and that’s not the country of origin for the dance either. It’s the land of my personal discontent. I am wavering, wondering again/still about the prudence of reducing the dosage of my meds. My wife suggested I not do so now for a variety of reasons, and of …
Damn those meds, those little yellow tabs of……what, of what? Life? Normalcy? Equilibrium? …..What are they doing to, or for, me? Do they have me under their spell, are they my control or my Savior? Can I live without them? Will I still be depressed?
Hmmm, what to write. Whether ’tis nobler…..wait, that line’s been taken. I’ve been pondering much of my day what to post or if to post, this day being the first day of the rest of my life so to speak. It’s the first official day of my retirement, early retirement if it matters. I tried …

The essence of spring is in the air and I fully intend to inhale it fully today and use it’s power to invigorate my soul. “When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.” – Mahatma Gandhi We’ve finally had some …
I’ve been posting for about a year now and I wonder…Is it time to come out of the closet, to be an open book? Before you jump to conclusions I should elaborate. This morning before writing in my journal, after checking emails and having breakfast etc., etc., I watched one of the Ted Talks called …
Although the title suggests a certain redundant thinking it actually captures exactly what I am thinking, I am Grateful….that I can be grateful.
