I FOUND A NEW PLACE ON LONESOME STREET, AT QUARANTINE HOTEL 🎶🎵

I’m back in Canada tonight, quarantined in a hotel, and it’s pretty much my
fault. Here’s the sad tale I’m telling.

RESURFACING

When I was a young child, I used to love to swim. I’d spend every Saturday
morning in swimming lessons, and then after lessons I’d stay at the Glencoe Club
pool, diving in to the water, climbing out, jumping in again, splashing,
treading water, just generally entertaining myself in a way that seems
impossible now that iPhones exist.

ON THIS MLK DAY: LIFE’S MOST PERSISTENT AND URGENT QUESTION

Today being Martin Luther King Jr. Day, , I’m sharing my favorite quote, not
just of among his, but of any: “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is,
‘What are you doing for others?’ “

LIVING IN EACH MOMENT

A wise woman once told me a half hour ago that grief is like an hourglass full
of sand.

A LITTLE HOUSEKEEPING

Given a lot of time at home not going out and catching Covid-19, and a new home
office desk setup, I’ve taken the time to upgrade my blog to the latest version
of EE, remove a ton of cruft, and get things all organized in here under the
hood. It feels fresh and clean and I may even come back for more than just big
updates.

A TIME FOR GOODBYES

[I posted on my mom’s Facebook page today.]
I am sorry to be sharing this sad news. This is one of the last posts you’ll see
on my mom’s account on Facebook.

OVERHEARD

“The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds
to be good or evil.”

...who said it?



“Almost every American I know does trade large portions of his life for
entertainment, hour by weeknight hour, binge by Saturday binge, Facebook check
by Facebook check. I’m one of them. In the course of writing this I’ve watched
all 13 episodes of House of Cards and who knows how many more West Wing
episodes, and I’ve spent any number of blurred hours falling down internet
rabbit holes. All instead of reading, or writing, or working, or spending real
time with people I love.”

...who said it?



“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care
how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have
lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship
them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble
life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”

...who said it?



“I play with variables constantly.”

...who said it?



“Only the person who has learned Continual Love coming from a heart of
Gratitude/Worship can effectively deal with the problem of loneliness.”

...who said it?
