Back to basics....

My many remakings are remarkable in their own way. Each, to varying degrees, includes body, mind, and spirit. Each requires being proactive, rather than reactive.

Running always provides the necessary rubric. Running enables me to: regroup; renew; rework; reorganize; remember; and reenergize.

Running is not static; it requires constant movement. So too do I. Running is my restorative.

Mind murmur

So busy, tired, frustrated, and emotional.  I need to turn it around.  How goes the saying, what can you control, and what can't you control?  That's a great place to start....

I think it's time to focus more on one of my too many book ideas.  This one is, DIM Memories, Letters that Shaped a Family

I have so many letters my Dad wrote to my Mom, his then fiancĂ©, spanning 1942  - 1945.  The bulk of the letters were written when my Dad was deployed overseers for 2 years during World War II. 

Whenever I spend even a bit of time with these letters , I come away touched and feeling a bit more connected to the man who was my Dad and the legacy he left....  Each session also leaves me more knowledgeable about an assortment of topics, not the least of which is United States history.

There's so much I can't do, but there's so much I can do.  I will focus on the latter.
