We Need a Leader

I woke up to a message from my friend that struck me. She said, "What I feel the whole BLM is missing is that leader to speak for us. We don't have a MLK or a Malcom X right now." Her comment made me think about leadership in 2020. In the midst of Black Lives Matter, Covid, politics, global economic…

Day 65: A New Life

Life presents many opportunities. The trick is to both recognize them and to take a chance. I'm making headway in my "Keeping Promises" post from December. I had an audition for a community theater project this week (and got accepted into the troupe!), I'm actively working on the book, and most importantly, I moved to San Francisco. Calm In the…
