For me, an uplifting activity is sitting by water: a river, lake, ocean- it really doesn’t matter. One takes in the sights, sounds, and smells- cutting through the muddiness of daily life. The quiet is an invitation to meditate and pray…

If you had to get a tattoo right now, what would it be and why?
I often think about a tattoo of this beloved place in The Adirondack mountains, NY State. It is where my mind goes to feel ease and comfort in stressful times…should I do it? 😊

Which outdated technology do you miss the most, and why?
Just because…the sound the dial made; it had a different tactile sense- fit to be a museum piece ☎️🙂.

If you had to be an animal for a week, which one would you be and why?
My first thought was cat. No suprise! However, a recent interlude with a hummingbird informed my response. While on a recent mini meditation retreat, a hummingbird perched on a thin branch above my head. It flew off and returned repeatedly over the course of an hour. Here is a bit of insight found online:
“Hummingbirds symbolize joy, resilience, adaptability, and emotional renewal. Due to their high energy and ability to extract sweet nectar, they remind us to savor life’s small pleasures and stay present. Many cultures also view them as spiritual messengers or signs of comfort and healing after a loss.”
A spiritual messenger indeed ❤️.
