Got Persistent Bad Habits? What To Do…

Be-coming

Are You Holding the Emotional Bag for Others?

A case for self-containment You can only understand people if you feel them in yourself. John Steinbeck, East of Eden I trust I’m not the only person on the planet who is utterly repelled by Steinbeck’s quote. You don’t really believe this, do you?

Chaos & Emergence

Transition For 10 months, I’ve lived with my condo in a mild state of disorder. During a building-wide re-plumbing project, I had 2 floods in my unit.

On the Road & Heading Home

GPS: Taos to Salt Lake City Having completed my 2nd week in Taos, it was time to head back home. I felt clear about my relationship with Oliver. I was sad, disappointed and a little angry. Not at him. At the situation. I felt ready to return to Portland. Ready to tackle my ever growing … Read more
