  1. derrickjknight – UK – I am an octogenarian enjoying rambling physically and photographing what I see, and rambling in my head as memories are triggered. I also ramble through a lifetime's photographs. In these later years much rambling is done in a car.

  2. It is that, to be sure, and for others, like a good friend of mine, it’s blood on the snow.

    The most suicdes happen at this time of year…

    I pray for the suffering, may they find refuge.

    Lovely poem, Catherine.

    1. Genevieve I am so, so sorry to hear about the tragic loss of your friend. I know through my own experience that there is nothing more that you could have done. Bless yourself with the love and compassion that you feel for your friend. I too pray for all who suffer – and that is all of us, each in our own way.

  7. Elisa – I love reading, writing, poetry, photography and cooking and and and...!!! "It gives me strength, almost unbelievable strength, to know that you are there. I covet your eyes, your ears, the collapsible space between us. How blessed are we to have each other? I am alive and you are alive and so we must fill the air with our words." - Dave Eggers

  11. maryoconnor12 – Along the Connecticut shoreline – I am a writer, poet, community volunteer, pupil of psychology, writing instructor, guest speaker, artist, lover of nature, curious traveler and author of Life Is Full of Sweet Spots, An Exploration of Joy, as well as Dreams of a Wingless Child, a book of award-winning poetry. An advocate of the power of writing as an agent of change, I enjoy speaking to community groups about the joy of making words sing and conduct creative poetry writing workshops for inmates at the State of Connecticut’s York Correctional Institution. As a writer and a painter, I enjoy living along the Connecticut shore, where I infuse everyday observations of the natural world with the sensitivity and insightfulness that tend to define my experience of life. It is these reflections that have helped me realize that one need not look far to find an element of peace, of celebration, of joy, in this inordinate world of which we are all a part.

  25. alicatpurr – I am on a journey of self discovery that has led me to living healthy and pursuing dreams I had laid to one side a long time ago. My blog is a journal of part of this journey. It started as a record of my daily efforts to complete a 66 day challenge and has already turned into so much more.

He has climbed, hiked, kayaked, photographed, skied, and otherwise meandered aimlessly throughout the American West for decades.
