Weather’s just one little thing… but there are many little things on which we find common ground. We want to celebrate our differences but also our commonalities. The longer I work in the hospital, the more I know how many of both there are… Ann I’m posting the times for the risings and settings of […]

It was odd to figure out the ADD thing late in life (although others may have guessed). At this point in my life, when you add in the TBI, the brain works the way it does, and I accommodate. The arthritis is annoying but part of overuse. That once reliable middle finger now acts as […]

Stand up! Relax your shoulders! Open your Hearts. Smile at your Neighbors: We are the Force gathering, mobilizing, determinedly progressing in Laughter and Joy. In Peace. Feels Great, doesn’t it? Peace, my friends. Ann I’m posting the times for the risings and settings of the Sun and Moon here for where I live (Sunbury PA, […]

We all know I’m not an economic forecaster (heaven forfend). But those so named are sketching a fairly bleak picture. It is up to us to remember this is happening to all of us. Stone soup! Beans and Rice in the Park. Community banks standing with us. Oh, and voting. I know, not the usual […]

When I say let’s be Beautiful, I don’t just mean, let’s wear fabulous color and know our own Beauty, although this matters. Our smile can change a Life which changes the world. Our Kindness. Our Steady Presence. Our Willingness to Pollinate our World with Hope. To be those Sweetly-Scented Exclamation Points and Bold Capitalizations for […]

I’ve sung so many songs for this holiday, in a variety of languages! And for a variety of reasons — all of them hopeful. All of them looking toward Peace on Earth. Brightest night of the Bright of the Moon Moon! The world keeps spinning! Ann I’m posting the times for the risings and settings […]

What if for this 250th American Anniversary, we, you and I, all of us, determined to make Peace the language of our country and then extended the offer to the World? There are others who would take our hands and work with us. Ann I’m posting the times for the risings and settings of the Sun […]

What’s your Peace Plant? What’s your Peace Animal? It’s true that people who join me in my Peacemaking have to make room for my Pouncing! What do I have to make room for with you and your Peace? How did this happen? It’s already the first night of Bright Moon! The world keeps spinning! Ann […]

It’s such a shocking thing to see violence as the only answer he could find for his love for his country and his despair. It’s jarring to see his awareness of the cost of this for everyone, himself included. This is exactly why we need to imagine Peace harder. To build Peace jointly. To be […]

I realize I’m going to have to get my cheeks in shape for being constantly amazed and full of wonder. Not superficially, not in the everything is wonderful way that doesn’t notice the really-not-very-nice things, but in the way of someone who looks for Amazement and Delight. Someone who brought that to Peace. Ann I’m […]
