2010


Here we are: another year! Amazing. I'm in San Diego with my father and my niece Lisa...enjoying her company. She is an amazing young woman and I love her so much. She's taken an assistant professorship at NSW University in Sydney, Australia. SO BRAVE, so willing to embrace change. Dad is really happy that we are both here, and next weekend my brother John and sis in law Lexi will be here (fleeing Olympic madness in Vancouver).

I hope 2010 is a year of courage, change, and life re-energized. It's been easy for me to just go into "cruise" mode and forget that I still have things I want and need to do; changes to make that require fortitude and persistence. Reader, don't you find that it gets really easy to fill our lives to the brim with "business" (busy-ness!) and forget to work on things that may matter more: love, intellect, art? That's what I find anyway.

My "resolution" (hate em, but there you go) is to find the cojones to work on these things in personal and professional spheres. If this resonates with you, I hope that for you too.
