A quiet man......

                                

Nashville National Cemetary



The graves of fallen heroes from five wars lie here.  They just go on and on, acres and acres, over 23,000 in total.  So he picked one out with a catchy name and looked him up, as he lie just below him, quietly.

James Lawless
Birth: 1832
Death: Jun. 25, 1899
Civil War Union Army Officer. Served during the Civil War as Colonel and commander of the 7th Kentucky (Union) Volunteer Cavalry.

Wherever it leads.....

It is always a thrill when the GPS woman’s voice asks “would you prefer to travel unpaved roads to reach your destination”? You bet!


Down south unpaved roads are actually common, much like up in the very northern areas of Wisconsin and Minnesota. Paved asphalt is only the gold standard in the suburban and urban American locals.

Unpaved roads offer many practical and cost effective benefits, as well as the pervious advantage to groundwater recharge. But it is the sense of adventure one feels as you follow the path up and down the “lay of the terrain” feeling more grounded and in touch with the earth.

Once we remove, or decide to not replace all the handrails the fossil-fuel empire has built in the last 100 years, we will live more within current means and become more in line with real needs.

Wherever they lead us to....

No regrets...no fears.....

Sometimes he feels the need to act ….and sometimes he feels the need to accept the moment.


Looking back with regret and staring ahead with fear is paralyzing, but acceptance does allow for moments of serenity…..that ever so sought after feeling of peace of mind that seems to only arrive sporadically, and last only briefly, yet we can become more conditioned to anticipate its arrival with an open spirit.
