  • The ” I ” in write!

    Write what you know! One of the first and most important tips I received when I began writing with the intent to publish. This would be a huge part of the definition of who the ” I ” is. What do I know, which I could write about? I hesitate to say “I know about”… Continue reading

  • How often?

    I walk everyday, even if it is just down the very steep driveway to grab the mail or an extra bit with the pup, who really takes me for the walk. I enjoy walking, it is my body that doesn’t like to cooperate. The arthritis makes it painful to go as far as I would… Continue reading

  • Am I a leader?

    I do see myself as a leader. This is due to having been a Karate Sensei for over fifteen years. I feel a responsibility to live as I taught, lead by example. I taught Karate-Do, which means a way of living, which goes beyond just learning the moves. Continue reading

  • The “I” in child.

    Remember when? How many good ole’ days stories have you heard, or told? That time we are referring to brings a smile or another laugh and remember when tale, and feelings of nostalgia for something once cherished and now, missed. For me it represents imaginations running wild and the endless possibilities the day could hold,… Continue reading

  • Another I{a}ttack…

    I noticed that my heart was racing and my muscles felt stiff as I re-arranged and put away most of the items I had put out for Steve’s Memorial Sanchin kata.

  • On the Eve of loss

    Right now at this time, which for me is 6:52pm, my husband’s body was beginning to fail. It could be that I am within as of one year- to the moments- the last twenty four hours of his life. It takes my breath every so often and I just stare within at the memories. I… Continue reading

  • Manipulations-More

    The only person I ever seek to manipulate is myself. That is the only person I have the right to, as well as actively participate in creating a line- or pathway to some better ways of thinking. In 2 days, now, it will be a year since I lost my guy. But I just took… Continue reading

  • The “I” in anx-I-ety

    Found another “I”. If someone intends to truly work on who they are as a person, an I, a “me” is the main topic. There aren’t too many other words to use to refer to the “person” which is a self. I- am “mind-fully manipulating” the way I think. So the manipulation is of the… Continue reading
