REALITY?: Journeys

I envy you your journey, but not your trip, I say. Because there is only so far that I can go along for now. Our paths are ultimately the same, but I am traveling slower, and can only watch and … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Gender Differences

Most of my life was spent in the firm belief that aside from sexual differences, men and women basically could think the same way and could perform at least mentally and emotionally alike if it became a learned behavior. That’s … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Filler

Yes indeed, this is just a filler post that I like to leave at the top of the page whenever I’ve just posted something dumb and dismal. Yes indeed, I do get gloomy, don’t I? The rain and lack of … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Timing

Balance is the key, and not my strong point; juggling being more my way of life. One crisis at a time; take one a day as needed. Not to exceed two in twenty-four hours. Overdose may cause symptoms of headache, … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Change of Life

Odd morning, picking panties from a drawer without a sign of recognition. Wondering when I got them, since I should be most intimately familiar with them all. Worrying not about a spouse’s indiscretion, but worse; a lack of memory, a … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Close, Closer, and Go Away

REALITY?: It Never Rains, It Pours

Close calls are becoming a way of life for my sister, just back from a traumatic emergency visit to her daughter (the one now sporting a horseshoe shaped scar on her head). Today’s mail brought this e-mail from her: “Hi … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Or not?
