In August ... in an Arizona neighborhood.

Pretty.

This I believe completely ...

Compassion is expressed in gentleness. When I think of the persons I know who model for me the depths of the spiritual life, I am struck by their gentleness ... They are gentle because they have honestly faced the struggles given to them and have learned the hard way that personal survival is not the point. Their caring is gentle because their self-aggrandizement is no longer at stake. There is nothing in it for them. Their vulnerability has been stretched to clear-eyed sensitivity to others and truly selfless love.

For my Mother

Are you there?

When orphaned, one wonders these things...

School is on

Endless conversations with friends to determine everyone's teacher...

Getting the backpack ready...

Memories are made of this.
