Wish You Were Here. The great Socrates once said, "All I really know is that I know nothing. I feel pretty much the same way.except I have a blog and he didn't. How's This for a Fourth of July Celebration? In honor of our nation's birthday, the family and I decided to watch History Channel's "The Revolution". We actually wanted to know about the Declaration of Independence, but upon finding this episodic documentary on Netflix streaming. The Boston Massacre of 1770? Washington’s complex character? Often ...

Wish You Were Here. The great Socrates once said, "All I really know is that I know nothing. I feel pretty much the same way.except I have a blog and he didn't. 10: Wisdom is Avoiding All Thoughts that Weaken You. And yet so complex. In its theory - yes, obtaining wisdom seems easy. Avoid weakening thoughts. Though, in the sense that execution is difficult. Paradox! Involves thoughts that move us upward (the "high" energies - love, peace, kindness, joy, willingness, etc.). Force. Involves the "low" energ...

A Taoist Journey to the Stars: Tao or Dao
http://kerritao.blogspot.com/2011/12/tao-or-dao.html
A Taoist Journey to the Stars. Saturday, December 10, 2011. When I tell people I am a Taoist, a frequently asked question of anyone well read in religious texts asks the questions, "What's the difference between Tao and Dao? The long answer is much more complicated and steeped in judgement. I would point you to this document for an example of what I mean: what is dao? Isn't there space for more than a single interpretation of the texts? So what if some of them are western oriented? Written as the Zhuangzi.

A Taoist Journey to the Stars: Happy Father's Day
http://kerritao.blogspot.com/2014/06/happy-fathers-day.html
A Taoist Journey to the Stars. Sunday, June 15, 2014. Today is a day to celebrate all the father figures out there. I am always careful to include not only those who have officially sired children, but also those whose hearts have the capacity to accept and love those sired by others. The world is such a better place because those men exist as well. I will consider my job as a parent successful if our little man becomes half the man his father is.

To Thine Own Self, Be Food: January 2015
http://nelsonfoodjourneys.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
To Thine Own Self, Be Food. Trying to make sense of this crazy world.one foodstuff, beverage, and meal at a time. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. Of Beef and Beer and Other Gelatinous Things. It's possible today's post will offend and nauseate animal-loving vegetarians. And while I am sorry about that, I can hardly apologize for stating that Cows are amazing things. Mostly we love cows because they are tasty between two pieces of bread or covered with a nice chasseur. But beef is so much more than that. There...

A Taoist Journey to the Stars: A Merry Winter Solstice to You
http://kerritao.blogspot.com/2014/12/a-merry-winter-solstice-to-you.html
A Taoist Journey to the Stars. Sunday, December 21, 2014. A Merry Winter Solstice to You. Merry solstice on the longest night of the year! With our son being 1 year old, we felt it was time to include him in some traditions of our own. This is an additional challenge, as I identify as Taoist, and the husband as Pagan. We are lucky in some ways, because these two integrate well, in identification with nature and new beginnings. For the next few years, we would like to add a few traditions of our own (feel...

Raindrops Make Things Beautiful 2: Random Thoughts From The Retired Me
http://luckyfrogs.blogspot.com/2015/08/random-thoughts-from-retired-me.html
Raindrops Make Things Beautiful 2. This is where you decide for yourself whether I'm beautiful or just all wet. Don't ask me, I'm never sure myself. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. Random Thoughts From The Retired Me. Some day I may figure out how it is I get close to 2000 pageviews a month on a blog that isn't updated regularly. Since I haven't a clue I'll just consider myself special or something. Maybe I feel this way because I'm closer to my expiration date and my peace has become more important to me?

To Thine Own Self, Be Food. Trying to make sense of this crazy world.one foodstuff, beverage, and meal at a time. Sunday, July 12, 2015. The Pool And Then Other, More Important Stuff. If I were to write about my own personal history of swimsuits, it would be very simple: no bikinis, two maternity swimsuits, a host of forgettable one-pieces, a MiracleSuit, and then in my 30s, I began to wear the Lands' End look popular for many, many mothers across the nation:. Thank you, Lands' End. She is lovely. Per se...

To Thine Own Self, Be Food: Sundays and Such

To Thine Own Self, Be Food. Trying to make sense of this crazy world.one foodstuff, beverage, and meal at a time. Sunday, June 28, 2015. Nearly two weeks ago, the Man and I decided it was serious high time to refocus, get in shape, and get our consumption under control. What did that mean? My husband's plan was, vaguely, this: eat better and exercise. As a former teacher, the problem was immediately visible. NO measurable means of progress.how would we know we were "eating better"? It's a British app, so...

Whispered Promises: April 2014
http://coffeereflection.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2014. A Story about Excellence. There is a Story with this, such as only I would be able to tell, because it fits me so well. A while back I received an invite to a luncheon at our main office in Dover, 2 hours away on a work day. I work well over 40 hours a week and time away would only make it harder to get all the work in and it frankly didn't interest me. I am not a crowd person and prefer my little hometown office where I and Richard - the editor and my boss - work. The picture ...
