Since 1998 I've been sending out these reflections first thing each
week--one or more quotes plus my thoughts about the intersections and
contradictions. They're archived here back to 2002, and a new one is
posted every Monday morning. Dialogue is still welcome . . .

Quote #1194 - #WhatYouCan
14 Jul, 2025
WHAT YOU CAN
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."
Theodore Roosevelt
"Every accomplishment starts with a decision to try."
Gail Devers
"If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
What I can do:
Breathe
Drink water (okay, iced tea)
Fuel my body (sometimes salad, sometimes potato chips)
Move my body
Protest
Stand up for what I believe
Not put up with garbage
Set boundaries
Breathe deep
Rest
Sing
Dance
Write it all down, what's happening
Write what isn't happening, the creations of my mind
Teach what I know (but always with curiosity)
Learn what I don't know (but always with discernment)
Sleep (sometimes)
...
Try again
