in·vi·o·la·ble:

2: secure from assault or trespass

• I am attentive to my [...]

		<description><![CDATA[
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have learned why it is that locusts (yes, like in the plagues!) swarm. Typically, locusts are “shy” (their word, not mine) and solitary organisms.

It was then I felt the stranger
Kick me right between the eyes

I recently worked with a couple who craved rituals in their life for different reasons. She had grown up in a family with a rich and textured home life, his parents had divorced when he was young and the most consistent ritual in his life was shuffling between his parent’s apartments. They longed to create [...]

I am fascinated by love letters. They&#8217;re full of passion and longing and vulnerability. When it comes to this topic, I am still an adolescent drawn to drama and unrequited love. My own history has something to do with it.  As a teenager, I received letters from a married teacher 20 years my senior [...]

Now that last year has drawn to a close, we&#8217;ll most likely begin to see retrospectives and remembrances of all the famous people who died. Each year at this time, the national preoccupation with loss brings me face to face with my own longing for those no longer present: A dear friend, an aunt, a [...]

It is the season of endings and beginnings. I look out my window and most of the trees are bare. Yet two oak trees stand with their tenacious dried and brown leaves rustling in the wind. Every year, these leaves hang on for dear life through the winter. Sometime around April, when the new buds [...]
