October 17, 2021 So, where is the building, I keep wondering? I thought, maybe they had a setback financially or something related to permits that has slowed their plans. Oh well, I’m sure sooner or later, it will be built. This morning as I rounded the corner and took a quick peek above the metalContinue reading “Where’s the Building?”

documentary
October 6, 2021 I am into watching documentaries these days…on important people and events that have occurred both in the distant and recent past. Some recent ones are: Jamal Khashoggi’s death, the American Civil War, the Underground Railroad, Jeff Bezos.

Who do you imitate?
September 29, 2021 I imitate others more than I’d like to think, not as in mimicking but more as in reproducing what I see. I suspect that is true for many of us, whether a positive or negative reproduction in our lives. For example, last week I was at a weekend outdoor market. I sawContinue reading “Who do you imitate?”
How about that Bentley
9/15/2021 I am not into cars, per se, or consider myself obsessed with or constantly in pursuit of material things. I’m content with the basics and do not need to have the latest model of anything.

Caterpillar to a Butterfly
August 29, 2021 As we walked along a nearby street in our neighborhood, the familiar face of a homeowner, Tara, whose assortment of flowering plants I have long admired, stopped me with a sort of urgent question, “Do you like butterflies?!!” I replied, “Yes!! Of course I do!!” She replied, “Come here and see themContinue reading “Caterpillar to a Butterfly”

Flatbush Ave to B. Altman’s
August 11, 2021 Living in Brooklyn, New York, during my teenage years (1980s), I experienced my share of teenage invincibility. I also felt that anything I aspired for was attainable, probably because of the upbringing of my parents. I was surrounded by endless skyscrapers and crowds of people everywhere I went, who walked fast andContinue reading “Flatbush Ave to B. Altman’s”
