The only thrill worthwhile is the one that comes from making something out of yourself. HITTING MY POLITICAL BOTTOM. Hello My name is Carolyn and I am a recovering political arguer. To qualify as recovering, I had to prepare a searching and fearless inventory of my p.a. past. Let me share the highlights:. HOME ON THE RAILS. We'll take you through the Heart of the West!

HEAR NO, SEE NO, SPEAK NO, YOU KNOW. THEME: HEAR NO, SEE NO, SPEAK NO, YOU KNOW. Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls. Comte de Mira. FAIREST OF THEM ALL. The pressure for women to be skinny, gorgeous, tight-bottomed, de-wrinkled, balloon-lipped, and big-boobed is just plain evil. MY THREE DAYS AS A CUBAN. The email fairly screamed: Please take it down. You could be placing people at risk. Give us time to look at it first. Posted by Serendipity Authors.

Serendipity: December 2011

I long, as does every human being, to be at home wherever I find myself. Maya Angelou. The Stories They Hold. I’ve never liked to rise earlier than the sun, but lately I’ve savored the first hours of each day. While I wait for a crack in the almost-morning sky, I imagine the treasures of my home. Treasures our family has gathered through the years. Chairs and tables, vases and pictures. Sculptures and coats, lap throws and newspapers. All of these in a comforting disarray of living. Writing Your Way Home.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be. Douglas Adams. ECHOES OF MARIAN HALL (Part One). I wonder if it smells the same. Rotting citrus. Meatloaf. Sour milk. Peanut butter. Disinfectant over vomit. Like an ignored school cafeteria. Or if it sounds the same. Whispers, flushing toilets, sobs, pounding on metal doors, screams, record player needles scratching on forty-fives, keys clanking against the swish of black robes. MY BRAIN ON FREDDIE MERCURY.

Rumors generally grow deformed as they travel. Edward Counsel. RUMORS OF ALICE SPRINGS. We arrived in Alice Springs on a jet plane. The airport was a modest affair with one building and a few luggage carts. We could barely breathe in the heat as we walked from the terminal to our bus. On the way to the hotel, our tour guide Mark lavished praise on us, for being the kind of travelers who would brave the Outback, not just luxuriate in the coastal cities of Australia. Because of our neglect, Katie missed ou...

Thursday, March 15, 2012. THE LAST THING YOU WANT TO LEARN. THEME: FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHILDREN. There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children. - Nelson Mandela. The whole event is bathed in grief. No one wants to be there, wearing a picture of a person they love. No one wants to watch someone find it hard to walk across the street. No one would wish this trouble on another. Some of the basics of helping children to grieve are well-understood:. Let the...

Wednesday, June 8, 2011. THEME: SAYING TOO MUCH. If you wouldn't write it and sign it, don't say it. My friend Carol and I walked home from school down 111. Street. We made it almost to the bus stop a block from my place. It was a Friday because I carried my white Keds home for their bi-weekly cleaning, as required by the gym teacher. My name was neatly printed along the side, and I had them tied together by the laces because they looker cooler that way. 8220;Your father,” she opined, “must h...I stopped...
