The (living) Death Eaters[1]- a diatribe  and tribute to Memorial Day[2]

There is a culture of G-d’s children Trained to eat death as a steady diet. They have to, until now – their hearts are ripped out. This is and they are, the definition of cor-ruption. They are the world’s true vampires. Sometimes, quickly, sometimes, slowly – but always with perseverance; their hearts bleed from teachings…… Continue reading The (living) Death Eaters[1]- a diatribe  and tribute to Memorial Day[2]

Anatomy of a Fentanyl Overdose

My son’s sweet childhood friend is currently in the hospital – brain dead on life support. While his heart is beating and skin is warm, he’s in a suspended state of “feeling” with no discerning brain. Without that – his e-motions are gone. No passions can arise; he but receives from outside. You could think…… Continue reading Anatomy of a Fentanyl Overdose

Peeps

I heard a funny story  of Kids playing an Easter game. They dress up their Peeps candies And melt them in the microwave. * Timing to see which becomes unrecognizable first, they videotape it and give subtitles while their Peep’s candy faces – efface from the inside out. * You know that’s how a microwave…… Continue reading Peeps

Lamentation for Turkey and Syria

May the souls of families and children who have perished in Turkey’s and Syria’s earthquake be received into His hands – whether or not they believed- of course He hears them.

A response to the prompt, “What is school for?”

What is education and why do we need it? As a hu(e)-man woman coming from a white Anglo-Saxon background, I grew up in a “privileged” town, or so I thought. Our public high school, had some good teachers but no advance A.P. classes; there was no homework assigned on computer. We did have Latin, Greek,…… Continue reading A response to the prompt, “What is school for?”

Thoughts on being a “healer”

If it is a “healer’s” job to guide the willing back to one’s own path of light, to remember and regain one’s true essence (bit by bit, with ease and joy – rather than being thrown in the alchemical cauldron and distilled back to nescience  (‘not knowing’)), then may medicine, especially as practiced in the…… Continue reading Thoughts on being a “healer”

Stoop-ed

vantage through the cactus

When did you forget to look up? Can you remember the last time you got to be fool, and yet, there was someone there looking out or after you?
