These are the reflections of a Secular Franciscan. I look not only at my own spiritual journey, but also at issues of life, economic and social justice, morality, the arts, and more through the lens of Franciscan Spirituality.

Compiling Songs
As part of my cleaning and organizing the boxes of books and papers cluttering my areas of the upstairs in our home, I sorted the music I play/like to play. I rediscovered some older songs. Now I'm preparing them for a binder.
"Bottle of Wine," "Get Up and Go.""Helpless," "and "Never Ending Song of Love," and others are being joined by the likes of:
"Deportee"
"Midnight Special"
"Lonely People"
"You Can't Rollerskate in a Buffalo Herd"
"I Shall Be Released"
"Dead Skunk"
"The Whistling Gypsy Rover"
"How Can I Keep from Singing"
"Donna Donna"
"Blood On the Saddle"
"Colours"
... and so on.
Lots of playing and singing fun ahead.'
Meanwhile, I took a cassette of the Peter Paul and Mary Holiday concert back in 1990 and got it transferred to cd. The concert was a benefit for the Sisters of Mercy, and I was lucky enough to be part of the community choir that sang with them at Rochester's Eastman Theater. What an incredible experience!
Pax et bonum
