Red Rubber Boots
By
Victoria Moran
When I lived in Kansas City, I hardly ever opened an umbrella and I hadn’t had galoshes since 5th grade. There was no need: the car was right outside and most of the places I was going had covered parking. Here in Manhattan, however, if rains, you get wet. If it snows, you get flaky.…
Speaking Up, Speaking Out, and Taking a Stand
By
Victoria Moran
It’s impossible to live a charmed life, or even a good one, when we’re pretending to be someone we aren’t. It’s hard not to put on camouflage and try to fit in everywhere, and yet the freedom of standing for what one stands for is lovely indeed. You may have read yesterday’s comments. A gentleman…

When I did yesterday’s blog, I somehow told Movable Type, the program Beliefnet bloggers use to get our thoughts from our heads to your screen, to eliminate my ability to put in images (or links to other sites or italics or boldface type or anything interesting).

My daughter, Adair, was doing some background work earlier this week and sent me this photo entitled, “Me in the 1950s.” I was shocked at how much the picture looked like one of my mother when she was young, taken in the actual decade. I wrote that back to Adair, along with: “I’m glad we’re…

I had the best day on Sunday, largely because of the people in it. First I met two folks from church before the service. Charlana is a singer and Bruce is a dancer—boy, is he! He has that Fosse thing going on—totally engaging. I don’t know either Bruce or Charlana very well yet, but we’re…
