In autumn, winter, and spring, the aurora dances reds, greens, yellows, whites and blues across the heavens.
If you have never seen an aurora, imagine a rainbow. To intensify it, backdrop the rainbow against a black sky. Look at the colors. Now start undulating it in separate waves or flashes that snake or whip across the sky. Imagine a colored glow that changes the sky from its darkness to green or white or, if you're very lucky, the crimson red of a sunset or rise.

| I thoroughly enjoyed "The Five People You Meet In Heaven," author Mitch Albom's latest novel. My copy which my daughter had presented me with on my birthday (not realizing that I've always hated listening to talking books!) was articulated personally by the author in a series of four one-hour-long compact discs that I fully expected would lull me off to sleep long before the batteries on my CD player wore out.

The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls
The Glass Castle is a testament to the toughness of filial love, the endurance of a girl-child’s imagination and hope, and the necessity of maintaining compassion in order to present a history that offers, even in the face of horrible adversity, a semblance of truth.

PART I: THE ACCIDENT
As the lines continued winding over the drum, Larry heard a short, sheet-white scream. He whirled around to see Dick’s feet going over the top of the net reel.

| In the several seconds it takes for me to notice the scraping noise, I find myself once again mesmerized by my new pug, Beatrice. She’s trying to squeeze her little sausage body out from beneath the coffee table while I am considering that perhaps three meals a day is excessive for a puppy. What can I say? I just want to make the little princess happy. She stops wriggling again and tilts her head in the direction of the kitchen, growling. This is when I hear it; metal grinding against wood, as though someone is whittling away the frame of my kitchen window. Damn the old buildings in this city.

Last February, my 86-year-old mother did something she swore she would never do: she moved in with one of her children, me.

| There comes a time in all our lives when we have to say goodbye to someone or something that we like. This happened to me a few years ago when one wintry morning my old car wouldn't start. Again. This was in the days when cars still had chokes, I'm not sure what they have now but I don't think that they have chokes.
