The Evolution of My Logo

April 14, 2025

This story is not really about my logo. The topic is much more important than that. I know most people don’t pay close attention to the logo of my business, Visionary Leadership, pictured here. I designed it to represent love for the world and our people. In 2019, I made an important change to the […]

The Bhagavad Gita

April 7, 2025

A core element of spiritual development is studying sacred texts. For most of my life, I chose the Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu, which I still treasure.

I am the Bread Man

March 24, 2025

I have been experimenting with no-knead bread, and in the photo are two of my latest creations.

Getting Away

March 17, 2025

Sometimes, there’s too much going on, and I need to step away to clear my head. The weather lightened up last week. On Tuesday and Wednesday nights, it was forecast not to drop below 40, so I made my getaway. Kaya and I headed out to Shenandoah National Park and straight for one of my […]

Berlin’s War Memorials

February 17, 2025

I intended to skip most World War II memorials and historic sites when my son and I were in Berlin. Then, I went out to dinner with […]

Our Pack

February 10, 2025

The Shepherd waits, still as stone, eyes tracing every shadow, a silent sentinel. The Pitty spins, a blur of muscle and joy, bounding, twisting, leaping, never still, […]

Renewal

February 3, 2025

Last week, I had a business trip to Clearwater, Florida, and brought my beautiful bride, Laura, along for the ride. Although I spent most of my time […]

Creative Renewal

January 27, 2025

Because I have Children

January 13, 2025

My mother, Diana Weaver Kahan, was a poet. Her birthday was yesterday. She would have been 90. Instead, she lives in eternity. She was not a published […]

Taking the Canines to the Beach
