Karen Maroda is in the top 3 clinicians from whom I've learned the most. This updated 2nd ed. is even more fantastic than the 1st.

Bliss it is to have one's building on campus entirely empty, permitting silence to read and stare out the window. This new book on Bion is very good.

On a cold morning run past my favorite library tree and lo! what do I spy but some Handel whom I love. So I'll noodle away at this on the piano and be ready for my global debut c. 2097.

The quiet of the late morning before the first patient. While the kettle boils to make the tea, you fuss over the plants and wind the clock and enjoy the "stillness between two waves of the sea" (Eliot).

After far too many years of saying I want to learn to play piano, I had my first lesson yesterday (loved it!) and bought this get-up. I have been practicing today.
