Happy Father’s Day to fathers everywhere.

Two new readers have recently asked a complex question. Which 9-11 organizations do I most support and why? They may be surprised by my conclusions, which I will publish here in the near future.

This Father’s Day finds me contemplating the all around strength of my own father. The oldest of six boys, his childhood was difficult but he overcame obstacles to become a successful and an inspirational person. My dad will likely appreciate two powerful new books that I am currently reading Chi Kung-Way of Power and Tao Mentoring.

Both my life and career are getting on track. Recently I excitedly avowed myself a striving Taoist which changes nothing yet changes everything.

In 2003, an editor friend and myself collaborated on a photojournalism book from my hundreds of photos of the intense pre-Iraq attack protests in KC. Like other projects of mine the book was largely finished but was put on temporary burner for some reason or another. LULU seems like one good self-publishing resource. Watch for announcements in future.

grateful, jan

Chase after money and security
and your heart will never unclench.
Care about people’s approval
and you will be their prisoner
