Writing

 Writing has always served me well starting because I was an only child. So, in order to work out problems during the 1950s where adults didn't talk to kids a lot yet often you had to solve problems yourself or you weren't going to survive what was happening in your life.

The whole culture was completely different then than now. The structure in some ways was there but things were still pretty Victorian in some ways then in the 1950s. Men very often had short or long term affairs outside of their marriages and lied to their wives about this. However, in some ways this was more normal than now when women seem to have more rights and men have less rights in their lives.

In my family my father was like a King who supported financially my mother, my grandmother and myself. Then because I was a boy I was sort of Prince Fred or Freddie too. So, I was well taken care of with both a mother and a grandmother in the house wherever we lived growing up.

My Mother's mother's husband had left when my mother was 18 so my mother had to financially support her mother and herself until my father and mother married in 1946 when my mother was 27 years old then.

Then my parents when I was 5 became leaders and in charge of a church in Los Angeles so my Grandmother took care of me more as they ran this church. But, at least on Saturdays usually and later Sundays we did things like Go to the Borrego Desert which DAd loved a lot because of all the rain in Seattle all those years where my parents both grew up. So, Dad always loved the desert. I didn't like getting cactus in my bare feet in the desert and like many Coastal California Boys I went barefoot a lot especially after I became a surfer by 12 or 14 years of age. I still go barefoot a lot and find it helps me ground into the earth more so I don't fly off into the sky so to speak.

Tibetan Lamas often are barefoot when they are doing pujas for this reason too to stay grounded to the Earth during advanced practices and pujas for many people.

Here is more on the Borrego Desert that my father really loved especially when we lived in the San Diego Area in Vista and El Cajon.

Millions of years ago, the land that is now Anza Borrego Desert State Park sat beneath an ancient sea. Over time, layers of sand, silt, and mud settled on the seafloor, eventually becoming the soft sandstone that makes up much of the park today. After the sea receded and the landscape was uplifted by tectonic forces, nature got to work. During rare but powerful desert storms, flash floods rushed through small cracks in the rock, slowly carving them deeper and narrower over thousands of years. That’s how these incredible slot canyons were formed. Even today, they’re still evolving. A single flash flood can reshape the canyon walls in just minutes, making every visit a little different from the last. ⚠️ Despite the dry conditions, never enter a slot canyon if rain is in the forecast. A storm many miles away can send a powerful wall of water through the canyon with little warning. 📍Anza Borrego Desert State Park, California Standing here is like walking through the floor of an ancien

Morning light in Palm Canyon, Anza Borrego Desert State Park. I captured this last spring; I always love seeing the glow of palm fronds and fountain grass (although it is invasive) looking east.
