My mama dreamed of living by the sea. Sadly she died in a landlocked valley. Each time I look at this horizon I think of her. She is my guide from the other side, often whispering “ never give up , don’t be afraid….”. Be good to to your mamas, others may come and go in your life, but you only get 1

THIS IS PERFECT.

Anyone else having a hard time telling if news these days is real or SNL parodies? Seriously, though, no one can make this shit up! Friends say to have no fear, yet I’m an immigrant whose parents fled an amazing country when these kinds of decrees took effect. I know, first hand, where this goes

How do you escape the news? Or at least try? This works: read . Read beautifully written novels that teach, transport, inform, inspire, and enthrall you. This one certainly will…. I really didn’t think Verghese could top his Cutting for Stone, but I couldn’t have been more wrong! Amazing read!

My school’s soooo cool! Made me happy to come out of retirement for a little while! Thank you Santa Monica High 💙💙💙

Thanks to George Conway for posting Caroline Kennedy's letter so everyone is informed about RFK Jr. Please repost far and wide.

Nothing like a car accident, and a very rainy morning where I’m stuck in my apartment, to make me wonder if it makes sense to live in a city by the ocean, if I need to work all the time to afford life in the city by the sea. Palm Springs has no ocean but some pretty cool art.

Today, my youngest turns 37! Never could I have dreamed how different my life would have turned out 37 years later!

It’s getting a little creepy in my social media world. Might be time to leave IG and FB, and who knows, maybe that’s just the beginning. In any even, hello from Los Angeles.
