No More Crosses
If you could un-invent something, what would it be? Of all the inventions humans have even made I think I would most like to “uninvent” crucifixion. More generally I’d like to get rid of cruel and unusual punishment, but I’d start with crosses. The world would be a remarkably better place if people were never…

Feeling Loved
Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved? Through big and small things I know my parents love me. My grandparents loved me too when they were alive. The rest of my family is also loving and I have a few truly good friends. So… it’s difficult to pick just one time…

Pack Ratt
Where can you reduce clutter in your life? I am kind of a pack ratt. I collect things that I might need later. They usually start in piles in desks and tables. Sometimes I will sort through the piles and throw stuff away. But I never throw away whole piles. If everything in a pile…

Favorite Animal
What is your favorite animal? I love our cat. All other animals are judged in relationship to her. Dolphins are smart but we couldn’t have one in the house. Chickens are delicious but I wouldn’t want to take care of chickens. We got a few bald eagles in town. They are very majestic but too…

Crazy Businesses
Come up with a crazy business idea. Truth they say is stranger than fiction. Women sell their used underwear and jars of their farts. Those are crazy but sustainable business models. Most of the things I have sold or tried to sell are in a very sane category. From used books to commercial art there…

My Amethyst
Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it? I liked collecting rocks as a kid. Smooth ones, shiny ones, colorful ones. My parents got me a big unfinished amethyst. The geodes I had are all gone. The bag of ancient fossilized shellfish is gone as well. The little…

My Mission
What is your mission? I have received three clear visions about my mission in life. I rehearse them as a reminder of what is important to me and what should be important to me. They boil down to these three simple commands. I am called by the Holy Spirit:“Walk upright but be humble.”“Listen well and…
