Time & Other Thieves
Reflections and conversations on the nature of existence. Sarah B. explores philosophical, spiritual, and religious ideas as they're presented in various books.
In late July I will start leading Time & Other Thieves: The Group: A monthly discussion, meditation, and interpersonal process group. Both cohorts of the group will meet on Zoom, one on the last Tuesday of every month from 2–3:30, and the other on the last Wednesday of every month from 6–7:30 (both P.M. and EST). Take your pick!

Time & Other Thieves
January 2024
Happy New Year! In this episode, I briefly discuss the difference between spirituality and religion, share the various challenges that life presented me with in the month of December ("man plans, God laughs"), and talk about the box of my late paternal grandparents' courtship love letters that I acquired over Christmas. I also revisit some of my thoughts and feelings about Christmas and how my attitude about it has changed since last month, and I touch on some of the books I've been reading: The Case for God, by Karen Armstrong; Angle of Repose, by Wallace Stegner; On Becoming a Person, by Carl Rogers; and Branching Streams Flow in the Darkness, by Shunryu Suzuki.
