More people are concerned with why women stay in abusive relationships than why men are abusing women

Today -
Officially, Lola has Parkinson’s dementia. She is going to start wearing a memory patch.
We’ve suspected it for a while.
She’s been trailing off in the middle of sentences, mixing up days and dates, forgetting events and names, but if there’s anything - and I do mean anything - that she hasn’t forgotten, it’s this:
She has never called the living by the name of the dead.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

Glass Beach is a unique beach, not because nature made it that way, but because time and the pounding surf have corrected one of man’s mistakes.
Beginning in 1949, the area around Glass Beach, California became a public dump. It is hard to imagine this happening today, but back then people dumped all kinds of refuse straight into the ocean, including old cars, and their household garbage, which of course included lots of glass.
By the early sixties, some attempts were made to control what was dumped, and dumping of any toxic items was banned. Finally in 1967, the North Coast Water Quality Board realized what a mistake it was and plans were begun for a new dump away from the ocean…
Now, over 30 years later, Mother Nature has reclaimed this beach. Years of pounding wave action have deposited tons of polished glass onto the beach. You’ll still see the occasional reminder of it’s earlier life, such as a rusted spark plug, but for the most part what you’ll see is millions of pieces of glass sparkling in the sun. (As part of MacKerricher State Park, collecting is no longer allowed).

We are not nouns, we are verbs. I am not a thing — an actor, a writer — I am a person who does things — I write, I act — and I never know what I am going to do next. I think you can be imprisoned if you think of yourself as a noun.
