It feels appropriate that we ended yesterday’s discussion talking about temperature, because the next behavior that rankles me is too cool. This one is going to be even tougher to explain because it is incredibly nuanced. I am not talking about those who remain collected and put together under pressure. Not at all (though sometimes… Continue reading Too cool for ?

Happy hump day. I’ve definitely gotten into this next troubling personality before. Unquestionably. I know that I have, because it’s the personality or behavior that hurts me the most. I use both descriptors, because there are people who are this way, and there are also folks who use this behavior as a weapon. Do you… Continue reading Oooooh, chilly.

Hey. So, ironically, if too weak bothers me, it might feel confusing that so does too strong, or more accurately, too egoic. Sadly, it’s often the too strong that attach themselves to the too weak. This makes perfect, tragic sense, because those folks are just looking for someone to heel. To attend to their every… Continue reading Lil Gaston-y, eh?

Hi there. Happy new week. I know I wasn’t around a lot of last week. I was busy. And thinking. And tired. All of it. I don’t want to make excuses. I just want to acknowledge. During my absence, my mind was constantly churning. Work, the world, the news, my personal life. Everything. Anything. There… Continue reading Weak, bro.

I wanted to continue what I started yesterday but as is the way of things, something came up that demanded my more immediate attention. In thinking about it, I am sticking with my theme. Complicated humans. The incredibly challenging task of surviving. Nuance. Depth. I suppose it’s just an issue of not sharing the narrative… Continue reading Mostly Good, Mostly Bad.

I was going for a walk with a friend recently and there was a deceased bunny on the side of the road.  Given the world we live in, and its obsession with darkness, I know what you might be thinking. Get that out of your damn mind. This isn’t some real life Yellowjackets shit. Not even close.… Continue reading Poor Bunny Boo Boo.

I thought we would end the week on a good note. We’ve discussed a few heavy topics, considerations for the year, and it just feels better to shift things in a lighter direction. What are your thoughts here? I’m going to imagine that you are agreeing with me here. I know that may not be… Continue reading Fun. Fun. Fun?

Hi. Ready to continue the conversation? Okay. We were talking about people caring enough. Well, to that end, I know that most people aren’t nearly emotionally intelligent or patient or kind enough to navigate meaningful emotional conversations. Most people just throw in the towel. This breaks my heart in a completely different way and so,… Continue reading Protect the wall(ssssss).

Remember yesterday when we were talking about habits? Is it possible that one of your habits is saying yes? Do you say yes to everything? Or maybe you say no to everything? Are you discerning when you respond to yes or no questions? Do you know the appropriate time to say yes or no? Do… Continue reading Yes? No? No, no?

Most of the resolutions I see folks committing to involve some form of restraint related to relationships or their body or their relationship with their body. They proclaim with some measure of certainty that they will be better, healthier, smarter, skinnier, fitter, move-loving, less desperate, and so on. There is an endless list of ways… Continue reading Simple habits.
