Hello there!

Welcome to my blogspace!

I think one of the primary characteristics of human beings everywhere is that Story is how we know who we are and what our lives mean. I think that is the urge behind the nearly universal experiences of storytelling– whether the stories be made-up stories to entertain ourselves, historical stories to remind ourselves of the larger context of our life experiences, or autobiographical stories that we use to tell others who we are– or even tell ourselves who we think we are.

This is where I’m telling my story– what I experience, how I feel, what I think it all means. My story is part of the Great Story, the story of all of us together trying to understand the lives we’re living and the Life we’re given. I hope that by trying to tell my story, you might hear something that connects me to you, and the both of us to that Great Story from which all our stories come and to which all of us belong.

So, check out my story– it unfolds below, piece by piece, in words and songs and images. Leave a comment– let me know how it is we have connected, what it is that you know that I need to know, what you’ve experienced that is also a part of the experience I describe here. I look forward to meeting you, sharing with you, and wondering with you at all of this . . . this Life.
