“We must make the choices that enable us to fulfill the deepest capacities of our real selves” (Monk Thomas Merton).  After spending the weekend with 4 college friends, hearing their stories, telling my own, I have to wonder, especially in this day and age, for us baby boomers, with all of our self imposed expectations and responsibilities, when does that happen?  It is a sad truth I think for most of us that there is guilt attached to looking out for yourself first of all.  We must be patient for the fulfillment we so desperately yearn for as it may take many lifetimes to achieve.

  1. Way cool !!! Always enjoyable to visit with the traveling braclet gals. The site is all very thought provoking. The artwork is wonderful. I didn’t know what to say when I saw the original so I said nothing. I liked it but I felt I might be invading your privacy or personal space. I’ve always liked your style. Thanks for listening to laments. Love ya,
