I’ve had one of these every year for decades. I usually print them and have them on the wall. This is as far as this one will get. I do like having it. It is congruent with who I am and also a mark of belonging to a community of people.

Take Responsibility for the Relationship
As a couple therapist, when coaching a couple to be together – I have to chose who to coach. One to listen better or the other to present their story so it is heard. Either would do, but I can only coach one at a time. So I move quickly from one to the other. I am the conductor they are the orchestra.

Homo Faber
One of my favourite posts in this blog is called Whole Earth Catalog – 50 Years. Read through to the end of it to find the gem, in my opinion, which is to understand the sad contortion of humanity’s destiny with the creation of the Whole Earth Catalog.
