Okay. We wrapped up a Monday with me telling you that you deserve what you have, or what you deserve. Did that feel enraging? Did that feel like a circular reference? If you said yes to one or both, I get it. I do. I feel that so hard. It’s why I sent you a… Continue reading Time to Pay the Piper.

Someone recently offered me a challenge. Not just someone. A mentor. A guide. She asked me to participate in an experiment. She asked me to shift my focus to how much I am valued and appreciated by friends, family, strangers, and even INCLUDE work (gasp). She asked me to start each day focused on ‘catching’… Continue reading Challenge Accepted.

My mom asked me today what I was planning to do to ensure that a particular situation didn’t kill me. She asked it just like that. What’s your plan dude? I told her that I was working on it and that I already felt like I was handling things better. She half-heartedly shook her head… Continue reading What’s your plan dude?

There is no right or wrong here. Truly. Well, except for one little bit. I would venture to guess that it’s time for all of us to look at our paintboxes. What does that mean?  Look at your tools. Look at what you are equipped with and what moves you and what encourages you and… Continue reading The Quiet Stuff.

Okay. So we can admit that these things happen. What now? Cool. We are so much smarter, right? Nope. We aren’t. How do we get smarter? Well that happens when we start to do something. Do something? Yeah something. We have to look at these shifts in perspective and the way in which our world… Continue reading Your Time. Your POV.

Hi there. Welcome to...not Monday. Shall we continue? Okay, we have a paintbox that’s missing a color. So what? So what or more like oh, that sucks big time? Well, I guess that depends on your general and overall outlook. Right? Are you more flexible or less so? You know what I’m asking you, don’t… Continue reading THE Straw.

A friend of mine recently taught a virtual paint and sip. You know what that is, right? It’s where you drink some wine (or whatever you care to imbibe) and lay some generic image down on a canvas, under the careful guided instruction of a “teacher”. Anyway, when I asked him how it went, he… Continue reading Work in Regress.

Hi. Are we frustrated yet? I hope not. I do find that when I’ve broached this topic with friends, they get a little touchy. I get it. I do. It’s hard to deal with. We talk so much about being real and being the most authentic version of ourselves, but most of us don’t even… Continue reading A List of Truths.

Do you think that we got off track last time? We didn’t, but I can understand if you feel that way. Maybe you didn’t or don’t. Maybe you are used to my style and you have some sense of where I was going when I went a bit off trail last post. Remember that I… Continue reading Who are you, really?

I was talking with a friend last night about my writing. Not this writing per se (though certainly this ‘counts’). The writing that I’ve been doing for a class I was taking. I’ve been writing about my relationships. Not the 10,000 foot narrative. Nope. The nitty gritty, granular shit. I’ve been getting deep into the… Continue reading Blurred Lines.
