About
I am a white, middle class, graduate-school-educated woman, mother of 2. I appear to be 78 years old (I say that because I sometimes feel much younger) with curly white hair that has grown bushy during the pandemic.
In this blog I will share my thoughts, feelings and reflections as they arise, more or less. Entries will be written like journal entries or letters to friends. They will be readable but not highly refined.
I reserve the right to share fragments and unfinished thoughts; to write things that are inconsistent with what I wrote a week or a month ago; and to go down rabbit holes I may not be able to get myself out of. I am letting you follow along with me as I discover, discern, de-code and put my stamp on the shape of reality as I experience it from day to day.
More than one true truth acknowledges that my experience may not always be logical and coherent. There will be times when I am caught in a paradox, when I can’t reconcile contradictory experiences and must hold more than one to be true at the same time.
