Waiting Too Long, or Too soon? R.I.P. Mia
Maybe it’s human nature, avoiding things that are difficult, waiting longer than needed to do the undesirable. Or rushing to decide, to end the angst of try moment. It’s probably always better to “get it out of the way”, do that thing you don’t want to do as soon as possible. Unless…unless it’s ending the …
Places
Places we put stuff, repeated, kept safe. Case in point, your eyeglasses, if you happen to wear them, if you happen to ever take them off during the day. As for me, I take them off at home regularly, not so much at work. Around the house, a few typical spots, on repeat, so I …
To the Mountains
Respite, long awaited, showing them another way, living a slower way, Beloved mountains, fresh air, sounds a wild, few street lights, a step out, away, away, What will the stars tell us, the trees, what will they say, how will we play?

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and …
Reflections from an American Patriot and Staff Officer
I follow this guy on Twitter. Seems legit. I respect and even enjoy his perspective. This thread from yesterday, a good example: “I truly believe that the American Revolution will not be won until the words of the Declaration apply to everyone, of all races, genders, identities. Until the promise of the Gettysburg Address is …

Muse
Woke just before four in the morning, itchy. Suffered a bit, then put some lotion on. That didn’t help much; some; but still itchy. And then mind starts to muddle; then speeds up; and it’s the weekend going into a vacation week plus off work. And so I don’t care so much, too much, about …
