All of this storm stuff got me to thinking. I know, I know… every time that happens I tread into dangerous, uncharted territory, but I’ve also got a lot of time on my hands, so these things will just happen. I was having a conversation with a friend recently where we were talking about various [...]
It’s a lovely day here in New England… well, I mean it’s lovely if you look past the massive power outages, electrical wires draped across road, trees smashing into cars and the prospect of no electricity for up to week. But beyond all that, it’s a lovely day in… October. I need to re-check my [...]

A topic very near and dear to my heart is perspective – why it matters, how people lose it, how to get it and how it just frames the every day experience of life so beautifully. It’s just one of those things that when I am doing my best at cultivating it, I feel unbelievably [...]
