William Blake said the fool who persists in his folly will become wise and last night I was speaking to someone who is funding his passion through his job – in other words, your job doesn’t have to be your passion or your do good or feel good work. Last night, we had friends over for a wine and small bite round table – everyone’s mandate was to bring their favorite wine and the reason…
Years ago while traveling in Italy I was robbed by a mob of gypsy kids. The Italians in the square just turned a blind eye to the whole fiasco and later I learned from Italian friends that people do not stop the gypsies from robbing tourists because it is almost like welfare and no harm is done except the tourists are relieved of their pocket money that day. I was thinking about this when I…
Yesterday a car was in front of me that was plastered with bumperstickers. My fav was this one: NO ONE DROWNED WHEN BILL WAS AROUND
Last night Aaron said the life of a yogi is devoted to sweetness, intoxication and beauty. Not a bad lifestyle.
November 11, 2010 Taurus (4/20-5/20) You’re always interested in questions of how what you’re doing fits into a larger context. You might wonder about your work’s impact on the environment, your work’s impact on your community, or your work’s impact on society at large. Right now, you’ll be particularly interested in these sorts of questions, and you could well get some very interesting — and perhaps even spiritually satisfying — answers. So how do you fit…
A zillion years ago when I was married for the first time, my husband at the time told me that I was dangerous because I would go all the way into something headlong without caution. He likened me to a Jim Jones groupie and frankly, it gave me pause. Well not really. Nothing gave me pause, I plunged headlong into everything after that and here I am. But I digress, here is why yoga saved…
Tin is becoming a music maniac – he gets up and wants to play his boombox and I credit my friend in Boston for sending him Blue Moo that took the kid out of kid music and got him grooving on some pretty cool stuff. So now with his drumsticks and drum from Jazz Fest, and his flute, recorder and trumpet, he is like a one act show. T took him over to Marc’s house…
Our nanny is out sick so we’ve been having a lot more Tin time than usual and I must admit it’s great. I told a colleague that if I had another life to live I’d be a stay at home mom for the first few years. Last night while T was teaching, Tin and I were having dinner and he was taking his time working through his green beans and saying yum every step of…
This Sunday marks the annual Poboy Festival on Oak Street and Carrollton – the festival says it is dedicated to the preservation of the poboy – should we be worried? I mean how could a poboy go away? It’s like eating a duraflame log but there is nothing more delicious than a shrimp or catfish poboy, or depending on where a roast beef poboy with gravy dripping down your forearms, or perhaps a old time…
November 09, 2010 Taurus (4/20-5/20) Reach out to coworkers or fellow students and ask them for their thoughts on your current situation. They’ll be flattered you asked, and they’ll be prepared with answers. You’ve got a good idea about what to do next, but it will be helpful to get confirmation. Once you do, your stress level will drop and your energy will be free to focus on getting the job done. Look for a huge…
