Waste not, want not

Posted today at Tapestry my blog about how not living a good story constitutes waste.

Waste feels cumulative, the way the movie WALL-E showed how mass consumption walls us in, leaving life that feels devoid of purpose, meaning and direction.

Comments about wealth, excess and waste welcomed and appreciated.

Here comes the bride.


"I DO."
"I DO." I really do."














"With this ring …"

"You may kiss the bride." Perfect!












Mr. and Mrs., the two become one.

Here's looking at you both, Kids.
Let them eat cake. Please, let them eat cake.

Fabulous dancers.





And a happily ever after looks like this:
