I love to run in new places. At home I run the same loop—it takes me down to Long Island Sound and it’s beautiful, but I know it so well that I can almost run it blind. This morning I am running in Knoxville, Tennessee, where my father lives. I am a little stiff. My […]

Work is just what we do to put bread on the table or maintain a lifestyle.  Like everything else, we tend to do it mindlessly. But it would be hard to overemphasize the importance of our labor.
