The End

The End

Prologue I have thought about what to do with the following material for the past seven years. I still agonize over decisions I made in spite of my very strict rule of “don’t look back”. Reading through these emails I relive the desperation I felt trying to pry 50 years of “secrets” out of my [...]

How Much is Too Much Texting?

How Much is Too Much Texting?

Text messaging has become an unstoppable phenomenon but how much is too much texting?  As a media sociologist and grandmother, I am fascinated with it.

After a particularly grueling conversation with a close friend who was yet again having trouble in her marriage, it occurred to me that she was once again playing the role of a victim, biding her time in the bad relationship as she peeked around a corner, desperately waiting for her knight in shining armor to make his appearance.

Communication

Communication

by Maria Costello Let words do what lips cannot flow into us warm as milk our mouths the petals of a child. Let the heart see what eyes merely perceive the heart is a golden angel asters entwined in her robe of jewels. Who am I to contemplate mysteries of soul where we really go at [...]
