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.

Last week I reflected on 2021. The lookback is always challenging because I try my hardest these days to avoid feelings of regret. I don’t want to beat myself up anymore for decisions I made or feelings I had or the consequences of either. If I wasn’t or I’m not pleased with the way something… Continue reading 2022 is….

So, this last one is actually my favorite. Admittedly, it might be the romantic in me. The last question for this exercise is -What are the memories I want to remember forever? I’ve already talked about this a little. The way we find light in the gloom. The way that we see things after we… Continue reading Ah, memories.

This next question is one of the most difficult for me. I don’t know if it’s the ego issue or what, really. It’s complicated, like most challenging bits of self-reflection. So here it is- What am I proud of myself for? The easiest part is identifying the thing that I’m generally proud of, but the… Continue reading Proud of ya.

What if we defy the suggestion I put forth yesterday and we are utterly impatient? What if we are impatient with ourselves and impatient with others? What if that impatience leads to bad decisions? What if we act impulsively and then, regret that impulsivity? Time to kick the shit out of ourselves, right? Nah. That… Continue reading Forgiveness? Sure.

Ready for more? I hope so. What experiences, habits and people brought me the most joy? How can I incorporate more of these into my life? These questions are a tall order when looking back. A quick glance back doesn’t bring about visions of hope or joy. I’m not miserable, at all, but also, I… Continue reading I’ll take two servings of patience, tx.
