Simple actions send me into meditations on my life in Tanzania.
My Life
In My Journals, Things Aren’t Always How I Remember Them
And yet, in a way, my “wrong” memories are also true.
My (Free!) Nose Job
A fall off my bike led to nose surgery. I wasn’t opposed.
Even Good Change Causes Anxiety
Maybe I’m just feeling anxious because of change.
The Elusive Now
Learning to enjoy the moment takes practice. I haven’t mastered it yet.
Preparing to Write
I need to prepare not only my schedule, but also my mind.
My First Day as a Writer
I hope writing will help me change my whole lifestyle.
I’m From the Forest
Where we’re “from” isn’t always about cities and states.
Ode to Wisconsin
My very first blog post, and a tribute to the state I’ve come to love.
