Happy Wednesday, TSJ Peeps! Today Solomon and SJ want want us to think about renewal as a timely and ever living process for all of us. Just think, every day our skin renews itself by shedding old skin cells. Our bodies are constant reminders of the earth’s cycle of death or loss and resurrection or renewal. The …
Wednesday Wisdom Greetings! Have you ever had trouble letting go of “what was” (an idea, a misstep, a security, a treasure, a love etc.) and facing what will be? I know most of us can say a resounding, “Yes!” Today’s WW is a combination of someone else’s wisdom (Norman Lear that I heard on a radio …
Happy Wednesday, TSJ Peeps! I try each week to be honest with you and share an everyday type story that may have a bigger lesson or tidbit of wisdom buried beneath all of my often inadequate words. And I rely on Solomon our wisdom wizard, as you faithful readers know. Solomon also represents light-heartedness for me. …
Happy Wednesday TSJ “Peeps!” Solomon wanted me to put the quotes around peeps to remind you that he knows you are not sheep, but human and real live people of big brains and deep longings.

Hello TSJ Peeps! I hope you are enjoying your summer. I am enjoying my new home and wonderful neighbors. I am experiencing much kindness and care here. More than I can say or even return adequately. But it is what our shared journey truly is about. Neighborliness and kindness seem to be synonyms. Still, the days are flying by, …
Hello TSJ Peeps! Happy Wednesday wherever you are. My somewhat new team of symbolic characters are hoping you are playing in the pastures of life today. But they are earthy characters and understand that life in the pastures can be tough as well as in the jungles. And sometimes it is a “jungle out there.” Life …
Good Morning TSJ Friends! Have you ever noticed how we like to blame someone when something is “wrong” or not going the way we like? I am sure you have heard, “It’s all his (her) fault” more than once amongst children. Sometimes adults essentially say the same when we point our finger at the boss, our …
