Father's Day Weekend photos

I hope everyone had a good Father's Day. We had a great weekend for this, my second Father's Day. On Friday, Charlene took Marley to a birthday party and where she got to wear her new yellow swimsuit and play in the kiddie pool with the other kids, who taught her how to scoop up water and pour it out on herself and others! Then we all went to the pizza place on Sunday. It was a simple, fun outing with the family... that's how I like it!

Wired for Empathy?

"We don't lose our... nationhood, religious identities or even our blood ties. We extend our identities so we can think of the human race as our fellow sojourners, and other creatures as our evolutionary family, and the biosphere as our community. We have to rethink the human narrative."
-Jeremy Rifkin
economist, speaker and activist

Quote of the Day

"When I am writing my problems become invisible and I am the same person I always was. All is well. I am as I should be."

"Untamed" Tees

Inspired by my friend Kristi, who said "I was once told I was intimidating like a unicorn. No one knows how to care for a unicorn so they just stare and marvel instead"... I started creating Unicorn-themed images that I will make teeshirt designs out of, under the banner "Untamed." to peep a variety of shirts in multiple styles and colors click here.

 stay tuned for more...
