The Art of the Day is: Values Clarification
Over the weekend I got involved in a conversation about what makes home home. Place identity and community and family. I feel fortunate to have had all three. It grounds me. What hangs me up is feeling like I'm disconnected now, that I could be more connected, more involved, more grounded. That I miss people. That there are changes to be made, and resistance to be overcome. That things can be both sad and sweet.

Some days "It takes all the running you can do to stay in the same place". This blog is to chronicle the running, and point out the interesting things, people, places, I meet on the way.
About Me
- Name: the other Joan
- Location: New Hampshire, United States
I've lived in all 4 New states, NY, NJ, NM, NH. I grew up as far away as you can from Manhattan and still take the subway.(I used to put subway tokens in my penny loafers so I could click my heels three times and go home). I've sung solo in the Parma Opera House. My brother and sister are twins. I believe that people want to be used, but they want to be used well.
