Life From My Perspective.
It was the last of the week, but first of the month, the first of the year. Welcome 2022, please- have a seat right here. My over-the-top magical optimism about 2022 was put to the test before the year even showed up. The test had the nerve to continue through nearly the entire first day …
Winter Solstice again upon us, my heart is filled with joy, excitement, and anticipation. So much to look forward to! The shortest day of the year- that in and of itself is pretty darn cool! And the knowing that each day is getting longer for the next 6 months is both a reminder to enjoy …
So I’ve almost never gambled. Almost, because I once quit a job after two hours. I left on my lunch break and never went back. Instead I stopped at a local convenience store, picked up a Pennsylvania lottery ticket, and proceeded home. And don’t you know it- I won! I mean the ticket was a …
I know we’re not supposed to do this since The Great Curse of 2020 (and apparently 2021 also!). And in fact I’ve never done it before. But… WHAT IF.. What if I did? 2022 is going to be MY YEAR! Sparks’ll be flyin’, my heart will be singin’! Whispers of dreams long dreamt will transform …
Who says you can’t buy time? The holiday season again upon us, I find myself content and barely stressed. Well, except for that one night… But all in all a much different state of mind than in times passed. Shopping frenzies a thing of the past. A fading but never forgotten memory. After all, how …
I was out on my nightly jog last evening with my best friend Jackson. He wasn’t talking much so my mind began to wander. I was recalling a recent conversation with a few acquaintances. I had mentioned to them that I used to tell people I didn’t go to college because I “couldn’t really,” because …
I’m writing Home from a place called Earth. I’ve been here for just a few years so far. There are many species here. The species I least understand is a Human species called Homo sapiens. If you’d like, go ahead and have a seat next to me and I’ll share with you what I’ve found …
The Fortress Of the Moon She was born in the light, of the light, and light is what she broadcasts. Light is what she sprinkles, light is what she shines upon the world around her. And to her mom, her grandmother, and her great-grandmother, Light is who she is. She turns 17 in two days. …
No indications of society or civilization within sight. The musical sounds of birds and squirrels, the chipmunks hustling and bustling all around me. The little snake seemingly smiles as I flutter on by and say a quick hi, offer a smile, and wish him a good day. The almost whipping winds from the lake inspiring …
I was recently presented an unexpected opportunity to revisit my 16 year daughter as her five year old self. To have frozen myself in that moment would have meant living forever in absolute awe and bliss.
The little girl’s eyes told I story that I knew all too well. I wouldn’t even know what to say, other than maybe “stick with the animals.”
