While I’ve suspended my Mosey civic engagement commentaries until Nov. 1, I can’t help but share a few interim tidbits to hold your attention. I hope you’ll enjoy these reflections on The Little Cloud That Could and The Happy Buddha. LET’S MOSEY!
Read moreSome Of My Photos For Your End Of Summer Enjoyment...
Thanks for your patience while I regroup for Mosey writing starting Nov. 1. Meanwhile, here are some photos from my library that I hope you’ll enjoy. In the interim, I’ll still be expending bursts of energy on Facebook. Thanks for Moseying with me…DRB
Read more"ART" IS WHERE WE FIND IT...BY PAUSING, NOTICING, ENGAGING, REFLECTING...
“Art” is where we find it, both inside and outside of our galleries and museums. Both Picasso and my friend Darden Smith have salient observations as we better engage the beauty around us. We just have to learn to pause, engage, notice and reflect. The rewards are immeasurable…often soul deep. Take a few minutes to notice these personal photographs, then consider how you can better curate your own life experiences. LET’S MOSEY!
Read moreTHE WISDOM OF OTHERS...FOR REFLECTION AND ACTION...
I’m taking a few weeks writing break, but wanted to share some reflections and writings that inspire me. Hopefully, you’ll find some gems that you can use in your own life and civic engagement. We’ve got some significant challenges to rebuild this Country with compassion, integrity and respect for our land and All God’s creatures. But, we’re creative, resourceful and imminently capable when we’re focused and motivated. LET’S BE. LET’S MOSEY!
Read moreLET'S TAKE A MOSEY BREAK TILL FALL, BUCKAROOS!
Hey there, Mosey Pals! Thanks so much for joining me in this blog adventure over the past two years. I’ve loved the opportunity to pose a wide range of ideas and observations, and have learned so much from many of you as we consider the challenges of an engaged citizenry. I’m going to take an end-of-summer break, and come back refreshed and raring to go in the early Fall. I thought it would be a fun change of pace to push “pause” in a blaze of good humor. I’ll be back here soon, will still pop up in the interim on Facebook and other platforms. LET’S MOSEY!
Read moreENHANCING/SAVING YOUR LIFE THROUGH CREATIVE EXPRESSION...
Creative expression can enhance/save your life. It has mine. In “The Artist’s Way,” Julia Cameron observes that we’re all gifted, but many of us never realize our gifts. Many blocks, real and imagined, often keep us from fully realizing, or even identifying our creative possibilities. There are many tools and paths that can open our hearts, minds and spirit to a fuller, more colorful and rewarding life. Join me as I discuss these options, and relate how I’ve sought to walk the talk. It’s never too late to explore your creative potential. Your Friend in the Mirror will thank you, and your family and friends will be glad you considered, “Who ya gonna be, when you get to be you?”
Read moreOUR STEWARDSHIP OF THE TRUTH...AND WHY IT MATTERS...
Truth, facts and science have been under attack of late, but help is on the way. It may take some Superheroes to turn the tide, but I’m aware of an abundance of prospects. As usual, our champions will come from our Friends in the Mirror and our Better Angels. We are called to be stewards of the Truth. To be well-informed ourselves, to encourage and model the same for others, while promoting CIVIL discussions relative to the issues of the day. Most folks of all ideologies want better than the mindless, stressful tribalism and political dysfunction that has typified the past three years. We can/must do better…TOGETHER.
