Wonderment and Wandering (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was once called the queen of metaphors, and I think it’s quite possibly the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me. I’m not sure why my brain works that way, but I will gladly accept that jeweled crown on my head.Metaphors are such a helpful way of distilling a perspective or accessing a truth that feels too difficult to comprehend with straight-forward language. It’s also a way to tap into our soul, who’s often too tentative to let us in. I believe it was the poet Emily Dickinson that sai

Last week a dear friend asked me if I had any openings in my 1:1 work because she had a friend who could use my guidance. I said, “Yes, actually I do.

I’ve been smiling more often.That’s something a friend pointed out the other day.And then just paying attention to the fact that smiles come more easily these days made me smile even more.One of those not-so-vicious cycles, I guess.Then I noticed something else. A judgmental story forming. How can I be a person who giggles with delight at the every day wonders, like my dog looking so cute in her new light blue harness?
