My dear friend and former employee, Sehra, asked me [via facebook] what defines a healthy relationship.  I started to make my usual glib response, but what came out wasn't what, even I, was expecting.   Sehra: My rules have served me well through 7 very healthy marriages and hundreds of weekend relationships. You asked, so here you are... The measure of a relationship is that it makes both people better than they are alone, that means spiritually, mentally and physically (the triad of self).     Together you create a new, positive force that is a source of pride, laughter and peace.     You trust your partner to come home to you no matter ...

After three long surgeries and months of recovery, a team of doctors at MD Anderson in Houston has declared me tumor free.  This was unexpected, but very welcome.  I will continue to get CT Scans every three months, risk of recurrence is still high, but for the first time in two years I alone in my own skin, no hitchhikers!I am headed for Springfield, MO, and of all things, a job interview.  Opportunity came out of nowhere, and it means giving up the photography for now.  Not sure about moving, hopefully I'll be able to work at home.  That's all for now...hfp
