I’ve been doing yoga for a while. Folks are often surprised when I tell them I’ve been practicing for over ten years. I was a college sophomore when a floor-mate, we’ll call her Jasmine, dragged me to my first…

Taking actions in order to reduce suffering not only is legitimate, but one of the rare genuine ways to gain happiness and to share it. I’m a doctor, I vowed my life to that goal. Accepting things as they are does not mean staying inactive when things have to be changed. There’s a big difference between resignation and resilience. Accepting that…
I met her last year at the naming ceremony of a colleague’s child, My! Was she gorgeous. She looked like the ice cream you didn’t expect to find when you woke up for a midnight snack. Her eyes had the appeal of a cute one year old and at the same time the allure of the woman she was. Her…

Love this, also the whole published writer thing? Holymotherfuckingshit!! Cue applause, confetti and all sorts of virtual things coming down. I don’t know how it works but every little bit helps since I was one of those Harvey … victims? Hate that word, it’s like Harvey stole my purse and ran away with it and I just watched instead of running after…

I write because I must.
I write because there are ideas that I think, that everyone thinks, but few if any are willing to express.

Wow, I admire your verbiage of survivor opposed to victim. I couldn’t even imagine the struggle and devastation Harvey survivors must be experiencing.
Um, I kinda stalked your profile and would like to ask if it would be okay if I feature your story in the Hopes and Dreams for Our Future publication newsletter this week?
I’m a survivor of many things besides this shit show Hurricane Circus going on right now in my life.

Small change for big results
I’ve always suffered from mediocrity. From lack of motivation. From half-way syndrome. I’ve said to myself so many times, “This is far enough. No more.”
And yet, every time I do, deep down somewhere, I knew I could do better. I could exceed my own expectations.
I’ve noticed over the years that a lot of “creatives” are criminals. Rock stars and their hard drugs, writers and their soft drugs, visual artists and their psychedelics: all illegal, all inspirational, all the time.
There are some days that are easier than others. Days when you can’t seem to get it right, whatever “it” is. Frustration sets in. Anger even.
