On my mind this Sunday morning, as I sit in my Studio in the heart of Paris, I am reflecting and rambling (and defrosting the refrigerator at the same time haha). Take a look at the photograph featured above. I have used my very favorite shot as the “featured image photograph”. What do you see? Continue reading “THE NEW NORMAL”

ON MY MIND THIS MORNING……
This morning I woke up upset, after hearing the news. I know better than to read news before bed. (sigh) I am writing this at this moment because I want to…… And, I have some pictures to post…… So what is going on? (This post is not intended as a “feel good” post.

“THAT WAS THEN; THIS IS NOW”
This is what is on my mind this morning. Something happened this week that made me very angry. And, hurt. So, when I woke up, I wrote down some words that kept running through my mind – THAT WAS THEN. THIS IS NOW. The “then” I once knew – no longer exists. This is NOW. TheContinue reading ““THAT WAS THEN; THIS IS NOW””
THE STOCKDALE PARADOX
This is what is on my mind this morning…the “Stockdale Paradox”. Before I start, please know that I am not looking for agreement or argument. I am thinking out loud in this post.

EASTER 2020 – “CLEAN SLATES”
THIS EASTER WEEKEND, I AM working with “a clean slate”. What do I mean? Welllll, I am still “in lockdown”. I cannot go out of the house without an “Attestation” (paper document) or I get fined (if I get stopped by the police). France is not doing well with its number of cases andContinue reading “EASTER 2020 – “CLEAN SLATES””
OUTSIDE MY DOOR – ONE MILE; 40 MINUTES!
BREAKING NEWS!!! I got stopped by the police again this morning! France has tightened restrictions regarding jogging and walking for exercise because people (young and old) were just going about their business, as usual, as far as getting together to exercise, laugh, and enjoy the spring weather in Paris. Damn! I have waited to doContinue reading “OUTSIDE MY DOOR – ONE MILE; 40 MINUTES!”
WE ALL HAVE A STORY
Lately, I have seen a lot of posts and gotten a lot of emails wanting me to share my story and it might be used somewhere. Which story do you want me to share? I have several stories. My early years.
