I want to offer this blog as a repository of subject matter I find valuable in every sphere of my own life and the lives of loved ones, friends, and colleagues. As the blog evolves, categories will organically pop out as Official Categories. For now, eclectic and diverse subject matter; a mirror of life, no?
