I’ve had skin sensitivities since I was a kid - none so stressful I went to any doctor except, when I had poison ivy - all over my face and body - that swelled my lids shut. 'They' said I probably got in some smoke or something despite trying to avoid it while out in…
1.We admitted we were powerless over (name your poison)-that our lives had become unmanageable. 2.Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. 3.Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. 4.Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. 5.Admitted to…
It doesn’t fail to annoy me- the constant references to “Mercury retrogrades”, squares and all references to the challenge planets of Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto by astrologers; they create much drama and fear that's unnecessary. These outer planets represent larger perspectives that stress us- and ruffle our individual sovereign self. We’ve only been aware…
I was just picking up a shirt off the floor in bright sunlight. It was astonishing, and gross, to see so much dust floating in the air, after wearing the shirt ~once, and with a camisole no less! A cloud recreated when I moved the shirt with a jiggle[1]. * Big to small, there were…
Synesthesia – the crossing and merging of two senses, like color and sounds, is an interesting phenomenon.

This helps reaffirm our connections with Spirit and Earth. When you want to be a pillar in your ‘society’[3], then this is helpful to keep on the straight and…
Now that the FDA has approved the vaccine for use with younger children, I hope those who do not choose vaccination will be either accommodated (wearing their personal protective gear) or ignored. Perhaps develop portable HEPA systems for kids in cubicles. Personally, I’m going to sit out my vaccination because 1) I have no intimate…
This morning I listened to a pediatrician and medical intensivist talk about the ethics of spending a couple of million dollars for one baby with a one-of-a kind (very rare) disease, in this case a neuromuscular disorder limiting normal breathing ability. These babies might receive a series of doses, some intrathecally, (meaning they stick a…
[ here we are in that time of Lent, but I have disclaimer. Every birthday for me, falls right in the middle of Lent and when traditionally there would be little fresh fruit. Parties and expected pleasures are generally muted. Maybe why, I do love a good party -am I entitled? To have excuse to…

Deformity – that which is away, de-, from form. The “form” is construct of manifestation, the shape or quality of a thing or being as it relates to function- what it does. For a human, as your presented self is often compared to the beauty of those before you, or at least, if you're beautiful…
