NEW: Taking Care of Mom: A performance piece about elder care by Barbara Mather. |
How to Improve Your Life and Save the World is the title of a book I’m working on. The first part of the book follows my quest for happiness. My first decision was to seek happiness as directly as possible. It took some work to figure out where to look. Not all of the decisions were easy. The road has not been without potholes. The second part of the book is a quest for a definition for “love” as an active verb. I thought there should be a single definition that would work for all “kinds” of love (romantic, familial, friends, enemies), a trunk definition from which the different kinds would branch with additional meaning.
Taking Care of Mom is a performance piece written by my wife, Barbara Mather. It is a powerful piece that will resonate with anyone who is taking care of a parent in their last years and, perhaps, be helpful in getting through this difficult period.
I have been thinking longer than Aristotle (at least I have lived longer than he did) and I have had a better education than he did not to mention the benefit of his wisdom and many others who followed him. Welcome to my thoughts.
