"The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog." M.K. Clinton It's been a really rough week, and maybe sometime soon I will be able to express all that happened. But for now, I think it's important to realize the mark...
When I…
I was listening to a Wayne Dyer presentation yesterday via Audible as I went on a walk. Dyer passed away in 2015, but his books allow him and his wisdom to live on. If you've never read anything by Wayne Dyer, it's time. He simply exudes peace and wisdom, both of...

Last night I attended a yoga class with my daughter. This particular class was a scheduled fundraiser for StevensTHON - Dance Marathon at Urban Souls Hoboken. This local yoga studio graciously donated all their proceeds from this beautiful and peaceful candlelit...

"Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it." Unknown This is really a perfect trifecta! All three can be challenging as stand alone actions, but if I had to pick one that I thought everyone could use help...
Tonight, We Dance!
Monday night, Doug and I started dance lessons at Fred Astaire Dance Studios - Hoboken. Doug had bought a package of lessons at the Princeton studio right before Covid hit, so we unfortunately couldn't use them then, and then we moved. We kind of wrote it off as money...
A Different Boat
Yesterday, while I was was walking the dogs, I saw the ferry docked at 14th street pier for yet another run back to Manhattan with all of its passengers. This particular ferry travels to only 3 places: Hoboken, Weehawken, and Midtown Manhattan—from 6:30 am to 9:30 pm,...
