Go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground. -Oprah. Saturday, February 8, 2014. A few days ago my long deceased Grandfather rolled up to the gates of Heaven in a big red Cadillac honking the horn wildly. We're way behind schedule! He hollered through the opened passenger door. OK Dearies, we've got to go! She smiled as she sprinted to the car. Beaming, she waved good bye as my Grandfather punched the gas peddle. And off they rode into their biggest journey by far. I rather like the id...

When I started this blog years ago it was an effort to explore the notion that if we all must fall, that we can learn to fall well. It it's an inevitable part of life, let's learn to do it better, thus avoiding injury and err, embarrassment. This week my sis got a call from school informing her that my niece had hit her head on a pole during recess. The argumen...

Go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground. -Oprah. Saturday, May 3, 2014. Falling Into Our Old Selves. This weekend my fellow graduates of North Garland High School Class of 1984 will reunite to celebrate our 30 years of post high school life. 30 years can offer a considerable amount of opportunities to grow, learn and stretch beyond the vision of one's high school self. Many of us have weathered the parenthood experience and some are even enjoying grand-parenthood. It's not that it'...

Go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground. -Oprah. Saturday, November 23, 2013. She's Down.No, She's Up! It's been a rough couple of months trying to work through what seem to be multiple flares from Sjogren's Syndrome. It's got me down. I'm down on the mat and Sjogren's has me in a choke hold. I'm waiting for the ref to call it. He'll grab Sjogren's hand, raise it high in the air and declare it the winner. Wait, there's another round? Are you kidding me? As I turn to face my opponen...

Go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground. -Oprah. Saturday, September 6, 2014. Who's Not Afraid of Falling? Not long ago Venus Williams was quoted as saying that in continuing to play through illness, "I don't want to fall on my face or do something stupid. Once I'm done I can look back and say I didn't make a fool of myself.". As her Falling Instructor I would most certainly gush with pride. Do you find yourself not. I nodded yes because I understood the point he was trying to make...

I was out. shhh. A couple of weeks ago I tagged along with David to San Francisco to hang out with him while he attended VMWare's 2013 Defy Convention. While he attended seminars and workshops during the day, I could hang out in the hotel room and relax. If you're thinking that I will tie in my falling with grace th...

I usually enjoy listening to guided meditations but I opted for just the quiet calm that the house is hushed with today. He's got perfect ears. Just look at them." she'd whisper as she smiled at him.

Go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground. -Oprah. Friday, March 21, 2014. While I Fall Behind. I've been a bad blogger. My little blog has sat here missing out on some awesome "falling with grace" material. There were the 2014 Winter Olympics. My gosh- falling skaters, snow boarders, skiers and my niece who fell in slow motion in her living room "like the people on TV". The Academy Awards provided more content as poor Jennifer Lawrence tumbled over a parking cone just walking to.
