My most recent Wandering Mind column, in which a knucklehead act leads to joy, peace of mind and kumbaya. You know, my usual theme.

And looky, once more I'm on-trend.

Years ago, my husband and I took a monorail through Busch Gardens in Tampa to see a bunch of wild animals. Another group was with us in our monorail car, with a designated photographer named Marty.

We knew that was his name, because every few seconds, one of the others would say, "Get that giraffe, Marty!" or "Quick, Marty! There's an elephant over here!" or "You missed that one, Marty!"

Marty dashed back and forth, snapping photos hysterically, lunging, sweating, increasingly disheveled, always disappointing his friends or family or whoever those fellow torturers were.

Moral of the story: Leave the damned camera at home. -- Ruth
 
Ha! Yeah, I guess the only thing worse than taking photos for yourself is being the designated photographer.

Hello and welcome to my website and blog.

My name is Sophia Dembling (Sophia with a long i) but you can call me Sophie if you want. I'm an award-winning writer in Dallas, Texas. That's right. Award-winning.

I write about lots of stuff, primarily travel, psychology and health because those are topics I like best. My main blog these days is Flyover America and you should check it out. It's all about seeing our Glorious 50 and I write it with Jenna Schnuer and Matt Villano.

On other pages of this site, you'll find stories, columns, photos and more. I'm not the blogger here I once was--the days of daily ruminations are past. But I will turn up now and then with a pithy thought. And rummage around the back catalog. Great stuff there.

Just remember: Everything on this site is protected by copyright. If you see something you like, send me an email. Everything is for sale.
