It becomes your habit and practice to say, I don’t even know why I’m interested in this, but I’m interested in it, and I’m going to look into it.“ - Elizabeth Gilbert … Thinking improves your writing.

Hello Goodbye
Welcome and welcome back. While I am creating I spend less time being grumpy. It’s a blessing that’s easy to accept. Even as I smash these words, I am simply happy to be here. Hello GoodbyeThoughts based loosely on the idea that there is no good meditation that does not include a meditation on death. A work in progress.
My younger brother Tom had written three pages long hand on legal sheets, indicating a few of his final wishes. One of which included being sprinkled off the bridge over Southwick Creek adjoining Edgewater Park, the bait shops, boat launch, and the Williams Bay Beach. We walked over that bridge for years as kids on our way to the beach. I had long thought that I also wanted to be sprinkled off that bridge. But after having it done it for someone else, I’m having new thoughts. Relatively unceremonious and surreptitious in the middle of tourist season, awkward anyway, I can almost imagine him being not-exactly-happy about it. I know I am not happy about it. Thanks to all the photographers that have long been sharing their visions of the bridge. It has pulled my heart strings long before we lost our brother. Take some time for your self. Perhaps a one-minute Joy Breath Meditation. Relax. (ha ha). Slow your breathing. Remember several moments of joy you have felt in your life until you can feel the joy as if it’s happening again in this very moment. Blessings to you!
