The message below from the writings of the great Frederick Buechner showed up on my email this morning. Three days after my Wednesday post! “Father, Son, and […]

A “3%er” …

It’s Thanksgiving. And this comes to mind?! Maddening sometimes. But, well. Here goes … Am I crazy? Sure. I think we all are. It’s just a matter of degree. It’s 4am. I awoke this morning with new “messages.” I get these most mornings. This morning? Something a great new friend laid on me yesterday. “Bob, you’re […]

Loss

My sister in law had heart surgery yesterday. Serious. Possibly critical. My mind, emotions became heavy right away. Nancy and I were facing the possibility of great loss. Tragedy. This was unexpected. We’d experienced loss with, through friends. “Oh no, did you hear about —-?!” “ I feel so for —.” Truly concerned. But from […]

On Being Stoic …

Have you ever watched someone who in the midst of a heated argument, maintains a firm, confident presence. Eyes focused. Few blinks. Who refuses to overreact …  contribute to the conflict underway? Seemingly in control. Listening for sure. But measured. Stoic. Regardless of your politics, John Kennedy (above) was one who remained stoic amidst numerous crises […]

The Lens …

Life is like a movie playing before your eyes.  Sounding in your ears. Senses … that serve as a lens that focuses our perception of what’s going on at any given moment. Is the “movie” simply what we see? What is? Immutable? Something over which we have no control? Has the script of the movie […]

As the Road Narrows …

No intention to be maudlin here. Just the opposite.  I just celebrated my 75th birthday. As I move along “the back nine” of my life, there are a lot changes. I’m more emotional. More nostalgic. More thoughtful … reflective. The gap between what I’ve wanted and what I have … is closing. I think I […]

The Leaders in Our Midst …

Countless books have been written on the subject of leadership. Wondrous heroes, larger than life people who have imprinted many lives with their courage, their imagination. The legacies they are building or have left behind … define them.  We marvel. “Isn’t (wasn’t) he/she amazing?” They all possess their own uniqueness. Their stories so compelling. Lincoln, […]

Zoom … Bust

Zoom! Here we go. Hooray! No more office space to pay for! Increased productivity! Commuting … out! All the savings. All that increased revenue! But alas, as I wrote earlier, the relationship “empty calories” consuming Zoom are coming home to roost. Just check the faces on Laverini and Majewski above. They’re from Atlanta. Looks like their […]

He was interviewed by the Rector of the Episcopal Church I attend here in Atlanta joined by Natasha Reid Rice, Associate Rector. Dr. Franklin […]
