Keeping Our Center ~ Day 71
25 May, 2020
I understand the meaning of Memorial Day – to remember and grieve all those who have died in war for our country – but it feels like it has become a celebration of nationalism, a day for parades (ok, maybe not this year) and backyard barbecues...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 70
24 May, 2020
Day 70! Who knew I could come up with something to say for 70 days? Especially when the days all begin to look the same… over and over and over again. Joan Chittester, in her book, Called to Question , talks about the spiritual challenge of...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 69

Sometimes we get so caught up in our lives that we lose perspective. What if we took a step back and looked at our lives as if they were movies playing out in front of us? They could be love stories, dramas, comedies, tragedies, or adventure,...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 68

In 2001, I met Mike S. at a “Preach-in” in Naramata, Canada, where I spent six days with fourteen other pastors of seven denominations from all over the US and Canada. Together we danced with the Scriptures and worked to create part of a...

In an article in Psychology Today , Hara Estroff Marano writes that in addition to being spiritual, a belief in oneself is essential to resilience. Coincidentally, I have a cute little journal that was given to me a few years ago that sits on...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 66
20 May, 2020
Resiliency… it’s how we get through the trying, difficult, often painful times in life. We will all need an extra dose of resiliency to make it through not only this time of Safer-at Home, but the economic downturn, the fear of a second wave of...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 65
19 May, 2020
When I was younger, and especially when I had kids to get ready for school, I tended to hit the ground running as soon as I was out of bed. Now that I’m a tad bit older I have the blessing of being able to ease into the day a little more. I can...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 64
18 May, 2020
I’ve been living with a sore neck since sometime last summer. It got out of whack somehow (I think I’m blaming the pull lawnmower and/or the dog), and nothing I did helped. It would be better some days than others, but then I’d go to sleep and...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 63
17 May, 2020
Mother Teresa once said, “If you judge people, you have no time to love them.” And she is SO right (though I don’t always appreciate that). Jesus never said, “Judge others as I have judged you.” Nope. He said, “ Love others as I have loved you...
Keeping Our Center ~ Day 62
16 May, 2020
Yesterday I talked about God as a verb. Today I’m wondering if we all shouldn’t shed the notion of ourselves as nouns, things, objects. We are human beings after all. English anthropologist, Gregory Bateson, was fond of saying, “Stamp out all...
