Fulcrum

Our word for today is “fulcrum.” I have a love-hate relationship with this word.  It means a pivotal point. In fact, fulcrums are essential, if you want an “easy life.” Think of the importance of hinges on doors, or that gadget that holds an oar in place on a row boat or the small grey […]

Medium…

Our word for today is “medium.” On the surface, it’s a very common, unpretentious, almost banal word. Do not be deceived! It has a depth, that borders on the mystical…… I first thought of “The Medium is the Message.” I’m a great fan of Marshall McLuhan, who was probably the first person to make us

Intricate

It was my turn to give a word in our writing exercise today. This time, it just popped into my head – intricate. I thought of the word partly because I was thinking of the intricate detail that artists bring to their work. I know that some can simply draw a few lines on a

Of course, some have hangovers everyday. So today would be just like any other. Fortunately, it’s been a long time since I’ve suffered a hangover

Entangle

It was my turn to provide a word for our writing exercise today. Sometimes, it’s not easy to just “come up with a word.” Yes, verbiage clutters my mind all the time, however, when asked to isolate just one word for a writing exercise, I’m often “stuck.” I did, though, ask the cosmos for this

Contact…..

Today, our writing word is contact. For me, contact, is all about connections… clicking… finding your other half. The other day we were talking about time wasters or maybe they were time soothers, pastimes that eased the troubled mind. Some played solitaire, others did crossword puzzles and still others preferred the more graphic jig saw

And still I (We) Rise….

It’s been a long time since I’ve written a post. What can I say? Life gets in the way of writing. I know, I’ve said before, if you’re really serious, life should be writing. Well, unfortunately for writing, I happen to be serious about a lot of things. I need to focus! Today, or at
