Quote of the day:

Still… is when silence emerges and self stands clearly. MotherPie

Doing a blog stroll this morning I found at Ronni’s place a still list – inspired by MotherPie.

And now I, too, am inspired to still-ness:

• Still loving Ada Mae
• Still not done uncovering how I tick, and writing about it
• Still glad I got all those degrees – my, what a journey that was!
• Still enjoying the tall oak tree outside my living room window
• Still doing the laundry, watering the plants, making the bed, cleaning the house
• Still proud of my beautiful, sensitive and talented son
• Still amazed at how still the early morning can be
• Still hoping for redemption
• Still grateful for the Jacobson family
• Still wanting to lose a lot of weight
• Still trying to get it right
• Still failing to get it right
• Still passionate about education and compassion
• Still working with teachers about relationships
• Still worried about child abuse
• Still wondering how comfort numbs us into apathy
• Still pleased that I live close to nature and the city all at the same time 
• Still wishing there could be peace in our hearts, between brothers, in the world
• Still thinking about politics, social justice, racism, feminism, socialism, and the kindness of strangers
• Still dressing in clothes that I am not sure I like so much
• Still cherishing my life partner, son, my friends in Israel, Europe, New Jersey, California, Philadelphia, Australia, Buffalo, South Africa, and especially the blogging community, and …

… Still … getting older …
