DaisyBelle, G-d and Heaven

  Dogs, G-d, and Heaven: If you are reading this, I will share that DaisyBelle has passed away.  If you are looking for a cheerful and happy blog, this is not going to be it, and I would suggest you move on.  If you want to read something thoughtful, maybe even inspiring, keep on. I must confess, when it comes to faith and G-d, that I am an agnostic at best.  I see much around me that is “miraculous,” but no evidence that there is a G-d, and I also see enough bad in the world to wonder if there is a G-d, why did she create us and this world in the first place.

Her life started with another family in Miami.  We didn’t adopt her until she was at a shelter, probably because Miami-Dade outlawed Pit Bulls.  To be honest, she was a wonderful ...

Some Questions I Can’t Shake About the Direction of the Country

What troubles me most is not disagreement, but the sense that we are losing our willingness to weigh human cost, complexity, and restraint. This is a summary of a conversation I had with ChatGPT, exploring those concerns: how we got here, what we are failing to address, and what a moral center migh...

How do you write about your Muse?

How do you write about your Muse? I believe, except for Rhonda Perling, and outside of family I have known Glen longer than anyone.  Not just an acquaintance but we were friends since I was in second grade.  He came to Savannah from Cleveland, and I always felt like an outsider at Savannah Hebrew Day School and having a new friendly face in the class room helped.  Glen and I became friends and spent many a day or evening at his house with him his family and their dog Lassie I believe. One memory from those years, was his fmaily had gotten a swimming pool and I think Glen had Bennie Elkins, and myself over to go swimming.  We enjoyed the pool, but he also had gotten a box set of Carpenter Music (wonder if it was a first "box sext").   He and I in particular enjoyed splitting the music and the pool time and was quite fun. After Day School, we would run into each other at the JEA and always had friendly times together but we didn't hang out as much till he we...
