		<description><![CDATA[I learned about sex from my mother, older brother, high  school friends, and the barnyard. I recall vividly my mother&#8217;s words when I was  eleven living on the cattle ranch. A group of us boys and girls were going to  play among the willow trees along a nearby creek. Mom said, &#8220;keep [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I never in my wildest dreams imagined myself a writer. This  dream appeared late and unexpected. It could only have come as a result of a combination  of other experiences, prominent among them were days in my counseling office,  evenings teaching adults in the church, and hours studying process theology.
I had learned [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Teaching has been a lively adventure in which I have  experienced my highest and lowest moments. I have felt frustration, agony, anger,  despair, and excitement, delight, satisfaction, hope and peace. Gratefully,  most feelings were high. This adventure seems ironic given that the earlier  parts of me were scaredy cat, coward and [...]]]></description>

During my career, I  counseled in the university, church and community, the latter in Wenatchee  for thirty years. I knew a few things before I met process [...]]]></description>

The family of Leland, my father&#8217;s  youngest brother, and his wife Elizabeth were one branch, my mother&#8217;s family  the other.
