What I Do
I have a passion for great writing. Excellence is one of my most cherished core values.

To Break or to Bend
7-5-09 | Many years ago, I was teaching an adult class in macrobiotic philosophy. After class was over and the students picked themselves up and shambled off to their next class, one woman stayed behind. When the room was empty, she came up to me and said, “You’ve lost a child, haven’t you?”
