Curtis Island Lighthouse — Penobscot Bay, Camden, Maine

Resting in the moment, being here, now, fine with everything just as it is in a “This, too. This, too,” kind of way, is doing it (Life, I’m talking about) exactly as it is to be done–in a “Nothing special” kind of way. Being here, now in a way that allows everything to be with us here, now, just as it is, with nothing to gain, nothing to lose. This is optimum. Exqusite. Perfect. Congratulate yourself every time you pull it off!

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
