Yes, we are having a great time. I didn’t mean to sound too negative, but it surprises me how dependent I have grown on instant internet access.

Dad. I am familiar with Dan Siegel’s work. His stuff on mindfulness I tend to use daily. Approaching life in the here/now, without judgement, and being aware is at the crux of my mindfulness exercises. Kind of Gestalt-ish but works for me. Also, when you put stuff out into webland it is fair game for your children so I can empathize with Sarah. Hope things are better with you.

David,
Thanks for commenting! Is there any material by Siegel that you could recommend to me? I am finding his interpersonal neurobiology approach mind blowing… but I’m interested in any resources you could point me to for any of his work…. love from Dad

Hey Dad if you simply plug in “Daniel Siegel mindfulness into Google a bunch of YouTube videos pop up. Also there is another guy I use by the name of Bruce Lipton and exogenous mindfulness exercises. Again just plug them into google plus mindfulness and some of the material will show up. Hope you are well.

Thank you for the recommendation. I listened to part of a lecture by Bruce Lipton this morning and am intrigued.

I remember your dad and mom (Mary) very well. Also you and your younger brother Mark. Seems your dad and my mom had a falling out over her volunteer work for then church. That made me very sad. I quit attending church and have never become and active member in any church since. My brother Chris however, attentions Court St. United Methodist these days

I can’t remember who you are without your last name, but thanks for reading and commenting!

Steve, did you get my last message? My last name was Staehli. I believe you’re pretty close to my brother Chris’ age. We lived directly across the street from Coolidge school. I’d love to read more stories about your dad. Your dad baptized me

made it to 68
Here’s a recording of Hampton’s hymn done by Anna Hernandez. Similar tempo to the one you’ve linked but a more pop rendition. I always kind of liked it. (Guilty pleasures…) Anna did it back when she was one of a duo called The Miserable Offenders.
From jupiterj

Interesting rendition. Thanks for linking it in. I hear it the way these people do it. I would be interested to hear stories of how the one person showed to Hampton. I got the idea that some of the people who put together Hymnal 1982 saw Hampton as a sort of Broadway musical type language guy. I think he’s more pop and rock myself and not just the stuff in the hymnal. I have played some of his organ music and it is interesting, difficulty and totally rocks (the last phrase from Rhonda Edginton if I remember correctly).

Many years ago we would take our cars to OK Tire and we were dissatisfied with their service. Check out near by Maplewood Auto Repair shop for your car problems. Great people and service!

You’re welcome! We’re going tomorrow night to GPS with the kids, did you enjoy it?
And I second the Maplewood Auto recommendation. They are have pretty amazing customer service, and always get the job done.

I did enjoy the GPS performance. I am planning on running down some of the performers. The Ahn Trio is not on Spotify but they do have some stuff on YouTube. They are very slick on line, but I thought they superb in person.
Thanks for seconding Jonny’s recommendation. I’m on it tomorrow.
