Gratitude Post
I’m a big fan of gratitude. In fact, I believe the so-called “attitude of gratitude” is fundamental to a happy life. So in that vein, this Gratitude Post is a simple, heart-felt THANKS! to all y’all out there who have visited the halffullallgood.com blog, have given a “Like”, or shared a post with others. This …
Lyrics Post: “This Land Is Your Land”
“From my youth to now, many decades later, this song speaks. And through its many renditions, this song speaks to us. To those who will listen. For those who yearn, and believe. Thank You, Woody. “This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York island From the redwood …
VOTE
It's frickin' fundamental. You're given a voice, a say in the matter! USE IT. We completed our ballots. Dropped off the envelopes at the County Registrar's Office this week. Your vote is your voice in a democracy. It's a fundamental tenet of our society. Don't squander it. Your opinion matters. Your voice matters. Let it …

Let the noise go. Life’s too short to let that noise distract you for long. Let it go, fall away, “like water off a duck’s back,” so the saying goes. It takes a certain strength I think, To let acknowledge whatever “it” is, and feel some of what it offers, and then, THEN, let it …

A Dad’s Life, Friday Night
Long week in the rear-view, some challenges, some big news, some fun, all in the wake. This morning’s random breakfast, left-over kid’s dinner plus a cheese stick. A Dad’s Breakfast. Fortified for the day. Twelve hours later, whirlwind workday done, lots of learning — always good — and glad the day, the week is done. …
The Face of a Good Attitude
This is the face of a good attitude. School day. Not thrilled. But she turned it around. A little sassy, but in a good and playful way. Inspired by what’s possible. And thankful.
Lyrics Post: “Lonely Is The Night” Billy Squier
A LONG time ago I heard this song for the first time. The riff, the lyrics, they stay with me still. They haunt me, fortify me, and everything in between. Dig it. “Lonely is the night when you find yourself alone Your demons come to light and your mind is not your own Lonely is …
