May we tend our inner fire and what it is that feeds our unique, distinct, and irreplaceable living flame, May we kindle all that is good, and kind, and worthy in ourselves and others always distinguishing between source, effect, and smokescreen, May we stoke our body, mind, spirit, and soul…
Josh Groban sings, and powerful tears surge in my belly tonight, lubricate my eyes, unexpectedly. I’m not surprised, I wondered if this would come sometime in my 21 day #DisruptTheGap. All day I’ve thought of faces I love and who love me. On this rainy night, after gazing at the…
Beaumont Newhall said, “Over the years, photography has been to me what a journal is to a writer – a record of things seen and experienced, moments in the flow of time, documents of significance to me, experiments in seeing.” The sun rose with ferocity while the twelve miles to…
At Papohaku Beach in March 2018, I took a mistaken path departing the beach. The further I walked, although I was entranced with the beauty and rippling with bliss from the day, it became more and more unfamiliar. I was likely on the wrong route to the road and my…

Navigating intensity, calm is gift within myself, and for others. Tonight, more words feel disruptive, and my spirit desires dynamic calm presence. So while Pandora plays, I visually wander through an afternoon of images from Kalani’s garden on the east side of Molokai Island. I am inspired to return to…
Today is about communication, skills, insight. Recognition of where I’ve been, where I am, and this spiral journey we each traverse in our own timing. More than 39 intersections revealed themselves in 15 hours, all while the power of precise words rippled in me. I thought of the gaps in…
A full workday, I passed three cars in 12 miles, along the dark and rainy two-lane road, arriving home a little past 9:30 p.m. Thoughts rippled today: I promised I’d write. Where’s my gap? What’s disrupting when my day is occupied by single-minded, multi-tasking focus. Have you heard the phrase,…
