Life Sparkles If You Look
Despite an annoying first impression, the world actually sparkles with beauty- if you carefully look. John Burroughs once noted that, “The longer I live, the more my mind dwells upon the beauty and the wonder of the world.” But, the world is not just beautiful in some places; nay, its beauty, though often subtle, permeates all nature and circumstance. Huck Finn, when asked by Ms. Watson, ‘Don’t you want to go to Heaven?’, responded that if it was just all sitting around on a cloud all day, playing a harp, then it sounded pretty dull, and he would just go wherever Tom was going.

Road Trip! 13.04.2026 6:11
I want to hear from you! Click here to share your thoughts... The trip across the Bering land bridge and to America: A newlywed couple leaves and their great, great, great grandkids get there. Just leaving is “pushing the envelope” far beyond what most of us ever consider. And, how would our values and ideas change on the way? Take a trip with me to consider. Click on TRANSCRIPT, above, to rea...
Disaster and Friends 08.04.2026 6:26
I want to hear from you! Click here to share your thoughts... Disasters really reveal your friends. Sometimes disasters ARE your friends. But, sometimes disasters are man made: like the Boston molasses spill. A wave of molasses 40 feet high roared through the streets of Boston killing 21 people and knocking over buildings. Or, the Galveston hurricane- the deadliest natural disaster in U....
Ace's Balloon & Hoolahoop... Incident 07.04.2026 9:51
I want to hear from you! Click here to share your thoughts... Who knew that giving away hoolahoops could cause such a fuss??? Well, anyone who knows Ace would not be surprised. But, the Earth Day celebration was ... caught off-guard. Click on TRANSCRIPT, above, to read. Or, just click play. Thanks for being here!
Ace's Beautiful Rubble 05.04.2026 5:40
I want to hear from you! Click here to share your thoughts... We are all human beings in balance. We tolerate negative aspects of people in balance for a greater part of themselves. What I like about Ace is his honesty. Most of us, at some time, shade the truth to meet our own need. Even sometimes sub-consciously, we put a spin on a description. Ace is amazingly straightforward. In fact, “s...
Verily, Careful What You Collect! 03.04.2026 12:55
I want to hear from you! Click here to share your thoughts... Walt Whitman, John Burroughs and John Muir were all good friends and even traveled together. One common element they all shared (besides a love of nature!) was an aversion to collecting unnecessary physical possessions. This was part of the three great American's philosophy that formed their belief of karma- though they did not u...
Jury Duty 01.04.2026 10:15
I want to hear from you! Click here to share your thoughts... I recently had jury duty, and it was harder to get out of than I figured. And, my faith in American justice has been shaken. These people were in outer space! Click on TRANSCRIPT, above, to read. Or, just click play. Thanks for being here!
