Of Two Minds: Being a Dad
http://landbeck.blogspot.com/2015/06/being-dad.html
I want to do the right thing. The most right thing, the thing that takes all possibilities of right, good, success in account. Sunday, June 21, 2015. As long as I can remember, I wanted to be married. I wanted to be a Dad. I remember often "catching" my parents being affectionate. It's not like it's rare. I've amused myself over the years finding similar pictures of me, zeroing in on Jenni. 1906 – 1945. So on Father's Day, I am grateful for my Dad. I am grateful he has been careful and healthy, so he's s...

Of Two Minds: The Superbowl
http://landbeck.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-superbowl.html
I want to do the right thing. The most right thing, the thing that takes all possibilities of right, good, success in account. Saturday, January 24, 2015. Last Thursday, I heard an advertisement for a local radio station contest. They were giving away a "Superbowl Party" for a listener. It transported me back to last year's superbowl, and what was going on for us then. When I checked him in, they told us that he could have visitors in ten days, on the following Saturday. They wanted all of the patien...

I want to do the right thing. The most right thing, the thing that takes all possibilities of right, good, success in account. Sunday, May 10, 2015. My Mom with her Sisters Jackie and Candy. My Dad with his Mom (Billie), her Mom (Me-maw), and *her* Mom (Maudie). Mom playing cards with Grandpa Stewart, Uncle Ron, and Dad. Mom, standing behind her Dad (Howard), sitting next to her Mom and two sisters. Mom and Dad in Billie's place, looking very '60s. Mom and Dad. That looks more '70s. 9:09 AM, May 10, 2015.

Lead my skeptic sight. Saturday, December 5, 2009. Sarah Is Avoiding Something. 1 When was your first breath on earth? Sometime between 10:20pm and 11:00pm GMT. About 20 years ago. 2 What did your parents decide to name you? Funny story. they thought I was going to be a boy up until I was born. Or at least that's what I remember being told when I asked. They were going to call me Joseph or Owen or something. But. I'm a girl! Why the heck are you a girl? 3 What's your natural hair like? Through an orifice...

Lead my skeptic sight. Thursday, August 27, 2009. Today was rather uneventful. No classes to stress about yet, no fun events to pass the time with. I went up onto campus to take care of some little things after we went shopping with Grandma Jane and moved our things in a bit. When I was done with my business on campus I realized that I was incredibly hungry. So when I got back to the apartment I decided to make spaghetti! This is what the kitchen looked like after I was done:. Our table. All set! Mostly ...

Of Two Minds: My Remarks on the Passing of My Son Maxwell
http://landbeck.blogspot.com/2014/08/my-remarks-on-passing-of-my-son-maxwell.html
I want to do the right thing. The most right thing, the thing that takes all possibilities of right, good, success in account. Sunday, August 10, 2014. My Remarks on the Passing of My Son Maxwell. My son, Maxwell Defiance Landbeck, was killed early the morning of July 13, 2014. I’ve written about Max before. This post is my effort to make sense of his death. To find personal context and peace with it, to see the meaning in our loss and grief. In the months prior to that, he struggled with substance abuse.

Of Two Minds: Just Around the Corner
http://landbeck.blogspot.com/2015/02/just-around-corner.html
I want to do the right thing. The most right thing, the thing that takes all possibilities of right, good, success in account. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Just Around the Corner. My son Maxwell sang in a premier choir. When he began singing with the Maryland State Boychoir. He was a tenor, but as his voice matured, he moved into the bass section. I can hear him. I can see him. And my heart, in the brilliant clarity of grief, fills in the spaces where his face is blurry. The second passes, and I am lost...

I want to do the right thing. The most right thing, the thing that takes all possibilities of right, good, success in account. Wednesday, September 03, 2014. The day after Maxwell died. We found two "suns" taped to our back door window. Jennilyn caught the anonymous neighbor almost immediately, but didn't share who it was. It has been an ongoing balm. It was a beautiful act of love and kindness. It was consistent, simple, earnest, true. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Making it "impossibl...
