Seaweed and Seashore - Musings: September 2009
http://forsythe-em.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Letter to Ethics Bowl Teammates. What I Hate About Ethics Bowl. It’s that time of year again. There’s a chill outside, trees are turning orange, the smell of wood smoke permeates the air at night, and an invigorating sense of excitement accompanies these two words: “Ethics Bowl.”. How do you talk about people when they’re not around? Does pride or your concern for what others think of you alter your behavior? You may never make the decisions ...

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings: May 2010

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Monday, May 31, 2010. A Letter to One Who Doesn't Read This Blog. Dear Izaak Walton,. You are the best part of being home. Besides my family, you make this little dinky suburban town my own place. I can come home to you. In the miracle of shared solitude. No need to talk. No expectations, no requirements. Just you and me. And if I wasn't just ascribing anthropomorphic qualities to a forest preserve, I would probably send this to you in real life. :). Saturday, May 29, 2010.

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings: Blessing
http://forsythe-em.blogspot.com/2010/05/blessing.html
Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Saturday, May 29, 2010. I don’t know why she felt compelled to buy my drink. I was counting up the handful of change I had in my pocket, so maybe I looked a little desperate standing there in front of the cashier. But whatever her reasoning, she did something astounding for me. She said, “I think I’m supposed to.” That means she was responding to something bigger than herself. I suppose that something bigger than herself. So number ten on my list became numbers one through...

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings: Dandelion Wishes
http://forsythe-em.blogspot.com/2010/05/puff-balls.html
Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Thursday, May 27, 2010. My life has been full of dandelion puff-balls lately. I've always been particularly fond of these, though they mean rather unkempt-looking lawns and more trouble than most gardeners desire. And yet, I can't help but love them, trouble though they are. For all their weediness, I've always found them beautiful and inviting. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Matt Maher - Alive Again. Other Blogs of Note. Jim and Amy Spiegel. Foreigner of the Day.

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Friday, June 4, 2010. This was my college blog site. But I've moved on from college. I'm not done blogging though.

http://forsythe-em.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Saturday, May 30, 2009. Out of Sight, Out of Mind. I usually use that old saying in reference to long-distance friendships. John Hasnas (and Frederick Bastiat) remind us that it applies to politics, too. But what about compassion and empathy? Frederic Bastiat answered that question in his famous 1850 essay, "What is Seen and What is Not Seen.". Friday, May 29, 2009. An excerpt from The Economist. The American economy is dynamic because Americans like it that way, even now&...

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings: November 2009
http://forsythe-em.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Friday, November 27, 2009. Quote of the day: "I can't wait until Christmas when I have a man so we can walk around Chicago together and it will be so romantic." - Caroline. The whole family went downtown today for a “Welcome Christmas! It was a beautiful day to be in the city. Blue skies, crisp, cold air and not too much wind. I like to look up and see a little patch of the atmosphere framed by imposing buildings of steel and stone and glass. #1. We inevitably entered the ...

Seaweed and Seashore - Musings: Rules
http://forsythe-em.blogspot.com/2010/05/dreams.html
Seaweed and Seashore - Musings. Monday, May 3, 2010. Someday, if I ever have a house of my own, I will have a porch. And on that porch will hang a swing. And from that porch swing, I will watch rainstorms. Rule #1 in Elena's household: rainstorms must. Be watched from porch swings. May 5, 2010 at 11:03 AM. A screened porch on a house in the middle of the woods - favorite thing about going home. May 8, 2010 at 4:06 PM. Can I come over? May 22, 2010 at 2:06 PM. I second Sallys comment.
