Laughing Goddess by RM Allen Jan 2018 The commencement of January always finds me assessing the outcome of 365 days of sitting with my “Word of the Year” (WOY) for the previous year. Back in December of 2016 I was still in sleepless shock, worried about the inept and crude leadership of our country. WhatContinue reading “Laughing Goddess”

The First “American” Eclipse!
I read somewhere that summer 2017 is the “summer of resistance.” Resisting, persisting, insisting; it is pretty much a spectrum and I am on it – trying to find balance in the middle somewhere. Trying to adapt to the changing political climate and find common ground. Listening to the news is still a perplexing activityContinue reading “The First “American” Eclipse!”
The Butterfly Effect
On an unusually warm spring day, the Dam-Free Fest was held alongside the raging river at the site of the recent dam removal. Children, bubbles, flowers, and colorful art filled the park.

A Call to Arms of Love / Pantsuit Nation
When I let myself dwell on the volcanic eruption of hatred towards women and “others” that just spewed from this election, I get the blues. Just as the first Black US presidency highlighted simmering racial issues, Hillary Clinton’s candidacy highlighted the simmering misogyny, now out in the open for all to see. She was subjected toContinue reading “A Call to Arms of Love / Pantsuit Nation”
Return of the Monarchs aka The Reign of Senator Elizabeth Warren
Now, just like I see the tide turning in favor of the monarch butterfly, I also see the tide turning in favor of women. Leaders like Senator Warren are at the front of our beautiful flock, undertaking inordinately long journeys on strong yet so very delicate wings.
