“Be YOU with a vengeance!”
(Lilla Rogers)


Little black canine – my loving shadow
O Growler of Other Dogs and
One of Insatiable Appetite
Your spirit is ceaselessly bold
yet your haunches have caused affright


I’m trying to practice non-attachment and I’m not succeeding. So excited about these colors!

My daughter’s boyfriend gave her a bouquet of flowers for Valentine’s Day. How sweet is that? I took a small portion and put it in a bud vase for painting. I liked how the dye colored the water.
“It seems to me that some of us value information over wonder, and noise over silence. And I feel that we need a lot more wonder and a lot more silence in our lives.”
Fred Rogers

“Stress is an alarm clock that lets you know you’re attached to something not true for you.”
Byron Katie

Wherever you go, there you are.

Bring more present moment awareness into your life. Start with small, every day activities. Instead of indulging in thinking (as you cook, take out the garbage, shower)…be present. Be sensory aware. Feel the energy in your body. Be aware of your surroundings. All it takes is 30 seconds and everyone has 30 seconds.
Eckhart Tolle

“I believe that luck is preparation meeting opportunity.”
Oprah Winfrey
