sMOTHERED  is back with pairs that are closer than ever. From synchronized hobby horsing and a mother and daughter who give each other “vagacials,” to our very first mother-in-law/son-in-law duo who are so close that the mom is making a mold of her son-in-law's teeth so they can have identical smiles! For these duos there’s no such thing as personal space. With stranger rituals, tighter bonds...

AMERICAN GUN: The True Story of the AR-15 by Cameron McWhirter and Zusha Elinson is about the most lethal handheld icon of the 21st century - the AR-15 rifle - which has become the weapon of choice for mass shooters. The same gun, under the name M16, was the gun that was carried by soldiers in Vietnam. Now, that weapon - or even just the silhouette of its barrel and trigger - has come to symbolize...

I often wonder how truth filled a tree's rings really are. Most of my research points toward how the climate has been measured. Experts say tree growth is very complex, as is it's interaction with the surrounding environment. As a child we'd rush over to a stump to count the rings. I don't see much of that anymore. Tree rings create the paper that which I write upon. I take those w...

We are activated in your word but still can't find the righteous path without feeling like we're followers. You want us to lead. To break down mountains, to teach others to reach beyond fear doubt and shame. We can see the real world.

The moment you pop your eyes open and you're ready to rock. Then you realize it's only 3:45am. Which was late for me in the 1990's. I was the host of a morning radio show. I had to be in my office by 4:00am. The goal was to be in the know. Only to realize I truly didn't know who my listeners were.

Thanks for being part of the conversation I am the Poet In The Forest.  A children series I penned out in the 1990s. None of it would be possible if it wasn’t for this forest in South Charlotte, NC. I talk about it so much that I thought maybe it’s time you get to meet all that inspires me.  Thanks for being part of the conversation

Life with all of its surprises. I'm not sure I could handle it any other way. Knowing the outcome of the full picture would call for me to endlessly rewrite and exchange. But getting hit in the heart by sudden shifts in the story line is a presence you never get used to. All you can do is learn from the last experience.

Let us hear your voice. To see the difference you add to each presentation. To open our eyes and hearts to the beauty of universal love and joy.

Yesterday's flooding played hard on our mental state. Moods, temperaments, depression and outlooks. We did what so many others do, watched movies and grabbed the ocular goggles. The worlds we step into don't feel as fake as they truly are. Even while using the meditation app, once I remove the ocular goggles, I've learned to create space for reality to grow back into my sights. You can...

Learning how to leave your past in the department of things you have long passed. Being a person who lives in the present isn't an easy walk. But what helps simplify it is knowing your past has been passed. My sister struggled with this. It injured her presence because those around her grew tired of the constant reminder of how things went. Sadly, when you live in the past you tend to rewrite...

Being present. Here. Not locked up in a memory. Here. Not in the unwritten future. Too much of what we envision sits in layers of unrehearsed time periods that aren't real.

You'd think with all these ways to communicate we'd have better connections with family and friends. In years past I spent way too much time trying to keep up with every digital form of communications. I stopped giving away my time. My theory or reasoning is based on a single thought: If I don't have the time how can I give away my time? All of these ways to communicate and we're c...

We spend half of our life chasing the image of who we think we want to be without realizing that it may never come into being. Or if it did gain access to one of the greatest moments, how long did the feeling last and how much time are we wasting to get back?
