Onboard an Alaska Air flight to Spokane for a meeting. A 6 hour flight on Mothers Day to contemplate matters of science, love, failures and dead mothers I wonder, on this day, what would my mom say? What would she have to offer? Words of encouragement, a laugh or a kick in the ass? Or [...]
> Vedanā: Love’s recursive function
May 5, 2012 By Leave a Comment
In waking this morning I lingered in bed for a few moments as the birds made a racket outside and the puppy pounced along the floor in anticipation. I was taking in all of the Vedanā which simply overran me last night, placing me in a transcendent state that continues to this moment. That same Vedanā also [...]
> Notes from Berlin
April 24, 2012 By Leave a Comment
It is a cool, early spring evening and I am sitting in a hotel room in Berlin, near where the wall once stood. I was here just after the wall came down. Now it is mixed used retail, condos, hotels and restaurants. The ooze of consumerism seems to inexorably spread, swallowing whole chunks of history [...]

One thing and one person in particular has been on my mind. A lot. Her and life in general has me considering the fortunes of [...]

> Seven reasons to why
March 4, 2012 By 1 Comment
I decided to go back and look at a couple of posts (which I often do as a means to determine my progress) Two posts stood out in particular; “The INTP view of love and caring” and “Elbows, hearts and stones”. The former was written during a time of growing, deepening resentment and bitterness because [...]

Marcus Aurelius wrote there is nothing inherently good or bad about change. I have to agree – change is what you make of it So over the past year there was incremental change in my life that started with the realization that my current environment was decaying. I could either remain and enter a state [...]
