A heart rock for the day.  Many conversations this day with people I know and like.
Hearing about their family, their concerns, their joys.
Hearing with not just my ears, but with my heart.
Laughing at their stories.
Giving advice when asked.
Most of us are at that age, caring for both children and parents.
And it is both hard and good to be where we are.

My favorite flower from childhood.  So many colors these day.

first post

I lead a simple life.  Not much into the technology.  My children are more into it than I am.  And my friends.  "When are you going to put a shopping cart on your web site?", "Why don't you post more to facebook?", "have you seen the lately 'whatever' on youtube?"  But, here I am, now.  Perhaps a vent or two, perhaps some pictures, perhaps, once in a while a profound thought that catches one.
