No written on a yellow post it note.

in Family Life· Life's challenges

The Value of Just Saying “No.”

“No.” “Say it again,” he urged. “This time with feeling.” I laughed. “No!” “Better. Keep practicing, you’ll improve and soon it even may feel natural.” I doubt it. But I’m trying. Why can’t I say “no?” Oh, who knows? I want to be agreeable, helpful, and considered valuable. Sometimes I’m so busy guessing at someone else’s feelings, that I can’t…

UCLA Basketball, Coach Wooden, and My Family

UCLA Basketball was part of my life for many years; in particular with a focus on Coach John Wooden. My father’s last year at UCLA was John Wooden’s first year as the head coach.

Time and Patience

What do time and patience have to do with each other? It depends if you’re focusing on time or on patience. Time doesn’t care about patience. Patience, however, is only knowable because of time.

Alaskan tourists see northern lights

in Traveler's Tales

Northern Lights’ Glory Shining in the Heavens!

We saw the Northern Lights’ glory in January 2024. We chose to go in January because our chances improved and, according to my astronomer son, they won’t be as good for another dozen years. Sigh.
