The Dance of Dignity

How does one move into the late stage of life with our dignity intact?

I have learned that this is not a state that one can create entirely independently. Rather, it is a delicate dance between willing, caring, compassionate co-creators of a social contract. I have seen rare, but beautiful examples such as one memorable afternoon in a small San Francisco diner.

Our Highest Goal

Being in service of each other and the greater community

Back in 2004, Professor Michael Ray, from Stanford University published his wonderful Book, The Highest Goal – The Secret That Sustains You in Every Moment.

This is NOT a book review. This is a story of achievement. You see, I read Michael’s book a number of years ago. It is the book version of his extremely popular and successful course he teaches at Stanford called Personal Creativity in Business.

How many of us have evolved into people who send our “thank you” notes via email, or disconnected birthday greetings through the use of those electronic cards with the animated illustrations and perky little tunes?

Women, Guilt & the “Happy Family” Myth

Nope, we can’t have it all

I recently shared several articles with a friend, all regarding the topic of the guilt or stress that so many women feel when they work outside the home. This included the recent comment by professional powerhouse, PepsiCo CEO Indra K. Nooyi, who removes the sugar-coating and reminds us that there really isn’t such a thing as “having it all”—that even mothers who manage well and seek a wide variety of help and resources still feel guilty.
