About Mary McAvoy

Mary McAvoy

I was born in the middle of the baby boom, smack-dab in the middle of a large family that resided in a middle class neighborhood, and I achieved middle of the road grades throughout my schooling years. In all matters, I seem to run average to above average. My destiny seems to be in the midlands.

I’ve accumulated no more or less than those in my cultural setting. My happiness and sorrows are neither greater nor less than others. I seem to be on target for average life expectancy for my age.

If I excel in anything, it might be in my sensitivity to love. And this seems to be on an ever accelerating incline.

Really, when all is said and done, our legacy of love is what will matter most to those who inhabit this life after us.

So, I write about love in my books.

And I see love in the beauty of nature - our planet’s own expression of love and its example to us of how we should look to each other - smiling, beautiful, love-filled people.

For the practical matter of putting food on the table, I try to sell what I write.

    Nice blog. I love your writing style. You have such a nice way of capturing the subtle moments of life — the mundane becomes rich and magical. I look forward to reading more as it flows in time.

    Thanks for visiting sublime days. John Lennon said, “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.” I think that sometimes we get so busy, we think that that busy-ness is living. But it’s not. Our real life is happening in the still moments, the moments of connection with another person or with nature or with our own hearts. I hope you do visit again! Mary
