Time to practice meditation. Sharon Salzberg’s 28 day meditation challenge starts today. Sign up for free at her website. Over 9,000 people so far, and you can follow along in her book Real Happiness.


I have long been interested in how men fit in and are accepted among one another. Specifically quiet or gentle men. I am hosting online a small group, free conversation on this topic on February 29th, and I am inviting men to join me. I’d like to have a discussion about what it means to be a gentle or quiet man who does not fully identify with typical expectations - being dominant, being macho, etc. I’d love to explore what it’s like to be such a man in the world today - the challenges, the joy, where you shine and where you struggle.

For more information and registration details, see the link in my profile. Any questions, contact me at info@crossingthethreshold.net Thank you, David.

p.s. this is not a sales pitch but a true interest to learn from other men’s perspectives.

I was so grateful to see these three last week - Olly Chambers, Lucy Chambers, Anna Chambers, and their brother (off camera) Eddy Chambers - my nieces & nephews. Thanks all for stopping by for three brief but full days. We’ll try not to allow so much time to pass before our next visit.


Out watching Jaws yesterday. You can get a sense of the size of those monsters by the surfer going left on the wave….and the helicopter buzzing around in front.


This evening.
