New Eyes

ByPamela Wood Browne

My fascination with the Gratefulness.org site continues. Today I explored the Labyrinth and enjoyed the option to be guided through the meditation instead of at my own pace.

I’m exited that I am finally writing on a regular basis (well semi-regularly anyway). I have had a somewhat tortured relationship with writing over the years. Through blogging I am finally…

A Generous Spirit

ByPamela Wood Browne

An important part of the Christmas holiday season had always been being full of a spirit of generosity. As I look at what the holidays mean to me now and seek to recapture the magic, I can see that generosity became one of the stumbling blocks for me as I descended into my scroogism. On…

Joy riding

I have always loved riding my bike. When I was a kid I even went to a summer camp that spent the second week on a bike trip. When I was a transportation planning intern at the SoCal Assoc. of Governments, I rode my bike to the Long Beach Bikestation and then hopped on the…
