Celebrate Life~kindly lessen



Everyday we can celebrate life on this fragile planet. Yes Earth Day not

Earth Decay since we have a short window to lessen some horrific

impacts.  Essentially we have to downsize.  Less will be more if we wisely

embrace the gift of thrift.  Yes. saving not consuming benefits all.


It is evident that weird weather imperils our well-being and planetary health. Already at least 3.3 billion people’s daily lives are threatened by climate change from heat waves, diseases, extreme weather, air pollution and starvation.


Let’s embrace conservatism in all facets of our life.  Better resource management can renew dangerous waste.  New economic opportunities are bountiful if we counter our self destructive consumption.  Preserve 

and conserve- celebrate Earth Day everyday.  Re-design more sustainable relationships in all your affairs. Any chance please reduce and reuse, lessen the decay.  


Kindly do your part to make this world more livable and enjoy this precious resource.


Look out how much money we spent just on economic stimulation for Covid- it almost $6 trillion dollars.  This doesn’t include the $ 4 trillion we spend on medical care plus we still don’t know full medical cost of Covid.  These numbers are still have not been determined.


Please minimize and optimize mending not ending our future prospects. Celebrate each day and lessen the decay!

The PRO Zone

I was just at the US Open as their guest. My mentor, Pauline Betz Addie, was inducted in their Court of Champions, winning four times in the 1940s.  In walking around several mindless cell phone users nearly collided with me. When I realize I am mindless, I celebrate the gift of the now, also called the present. Playing tennis has been a form of meditation for me. I call  the “PRO Zone " The acronym PRO- Pause, Relax and Open helps my game — arriving fully to play tennis. By relaxing in the present, I allow the distracting “mental” weather systems to pass. This allows me to greet each new point. Increasing my concentration, I give my fullest intention to pay attention.  When I “pause” between points and slow down-- becoming more responsive and less reactive increases my concentration during play. Next, getting myself to “relax” and focusing on mentally showing up can both lessen my errors and my anxiety  My introduction to mindful tennis first began when I asked my f...

Green Spaces Provide Great Economic Potential

This is a guest column thanks to Jack Lundee - "Taking a more progressive green approach." Some of the more heavily discussed topics of early 2010 include obesity, green infrastructure, clean water, and more. In particular, the addition and/or substitution of green spaces have been quite controversial as of late. Senior resident of Urban Land Institute Ed T. McMahon states "Green space adds value to property." Not only would these areas of conservation drive economic trends upward, but they also improve the overall health of the surrounding community. For example, substituting things like golf courses with conservation areas would essentially increase surrounding property value while diminishing overpriced maintenance fees. The same holds true for airports and other large acre-eating developments. Some of these areas are already abandoned or unkempt. For instance, park and recreational areas that were once highly visited have become urban wastelands. In an articl...

Celebrate Starshine

The shortest day is upon us. This is an opportunity to celebrate the most startime.  I embrace this starlight to light my inner candle. Dance under the Milky Way, allowing the trillions of lights filtering into the trillions of cells within you.   We are all children of the stars! It is a quantum pool of loving kindness. 93% of the mass in our body is stardust originating from giant red stars by the Big Bang 5 billion years ago. We share 97% of the same atoms. All the basic elements of life, oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, calcium, and iron, were created before the earth. We share from these red giant stars more of this stardust than the asteroids or the planet Mars, All living and nonliving things on Earth, from water, crystals, rocks, stones,plants, animals, insects, birds, fish consists, of this stardust The First People are and were mystical stars watchers. These heavens are the homes of ancestors, animals, plants, and spirits.    Stargazing allows me to play with the ...
