Jojo was a man
who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn’t last.
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass.
Get back, get back,
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back, get back,
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back, Jojo.

The Adventure Begins – another year of living with the questions about life & work. What can done within the confines of 365 days which enlarges the lives of more than one person? Taking a day-long nap isn’t the answer, although at 5 AM that’s the first thought that occurs to me.
It’s 36 degrees outside in Northern California (two years ago; today it’s 45). Dressed for comfort, I can watch the stars while drinking my first cup of coffee – ah, the pleasure of that first sip.
All energy moves in waves & particles, but the ocean wave is the only wave the naked human eye can see. If time is the lesson willing to be learned, the wave is time’s expression. It comes again & again. It keeps saying, “Will you know me now?”

The moon won’t be showing itself much, if at all this morning. (in 2024 it’s waning gibbous) It will be a New Moon tomorrow (2022) and completely hidden by Blazing Glory. I’ll look to see if there are any signs of the waning crescent while looking through binoculars before today’s sunrise, coming up at 7:22.
