Happy Labor Day 2024!
Happy Labor Day 2024! Yesterday, September 2nd 2024, here in the USA, we recognize and celebrate the many contributions workers have made to America’s strength, prosperity, and well-being. Interesting then to consider the relationship of the Labor Workforce and AI. How does AI effect labor? Sensational claims are commonplace when AI and jobs are mentioned…
The Joyful Teachers
It’s been 18 years, and it feels like yesterday. I celebrate her life each + everyday. I wrote this article on the 1st anniversary of her death. Today is the anniversary of my beloved Mother’s passing. It’s not an easy day for me… and this could very easily be a real downer for the topic…
Evolution of a LOGO
Evolution of a LOGO We’re told that creating logos for companies is an extremely important task. It must, through design, instantly “tell the story” of what it represents. During the process of trademarking my company in 2012, Sacred Stages, LLC, I began to envision a logo that “told the story” of my exciting new company. I…
Anger and the Hot Horn Section
What am I grateful for this year? Well, many things… But, thanks, to this election cycle, I’m most grateful for my anger. Yes, I’m really angry, and I own it. I’m angry, saddened, disgusted, horrified… So, this Thanksgiving, I’m going to focus on my anger. What kind of change will it bring? How will I…
A KINSHIP WITH DEER
This morning I took my coffee outside, stepping out on the patio of my home in the Catskill Mountains, still wet with morning dew. There is very little birdsong at this time of the year, but I could hear my Cardinal singing in the distance. And not 10 feet from where I had paused on…

Grieving is inevitable I’ve been thinking a lot about broken hearts recently.

Grieving is not a skill that society teaches or supports, particularly here in the Western world. In fact,…
Is Happiness Really A Choice?
“Happiness is a choice.” That is the quote I have as part of my email signature. It’s my quote; although I rest assured, I am not the first person to utter those words. I wish I had a buck for every time someone commented on that quote. I think happiness IS a choice. But I’m…
Up, Up, and Away to a New Paradigm
Up, Up, and Away to a New Paradigm Up, Up and Away In my beautiful balloon…would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon? We could float among the stars together, you and I For we can fly, we can fly… Remember that song? From The 5th Dimension, the ever cool and new age-y pop group from…
The Joyful Teachers
Today is the anniversary of my beloved Mother’s passing. It’s not an easy day for me… and this could very easily be a real downer for the topic of this article. But the truth is I see it a day to celebrate her life, and mine. I have also come to realize that by sharing…
Holy Paradox: Pour Me An Absolute!
I was recently visiting some old friends, whom I’d had not seen in quite a few years, in fact, long enough to be meeting their second child, now 5 years old, for the first time. Stuffed from a lazy, delicious brunch together at their home, I was putting my coat on to leave, and…
