The month of May, as part of spring, is one of rejuvenation, recalibration, and rejoicing. It’s a renaissance, of sorts. It’s also my birthday month. I tend to treat the whole month as “my time” to treat myself. Sadly, for me this month of May was brutal both […]
“I don’t sing because I’m happy; I’m happy because I sing.” William James It is an odd spring day for this week. The sun is out. It’s been raining for a week, or so it seems. Thus, collectively we’ve been a bit in the dumps. With the sun […]
