It’s near automatic upon waking, process honed over my many decades, My brain and soul activating, in these first moments, so important to control for optimum, initial steps into the day, Intent on slow start, easing in, early enough to make an initial, incremental, intentionally positive path forward, Thinking and prayer intertwined, using this brain …

Rigid Apropos
Rigid apropos, I don’t even know, if that’s a thing, But it is for me, a clear expression of maybe best learning for me, Not that I like it - I don’t - but apropos all the same, Rigid to perfection, minimal mistakes, zero best, no room when you’re zooming along, Busy business day, every …

The Smartphone, No Doubt
The most important invention in your lifetime is... The Smartphone, No Doubt, no doubt in my mind this is true, Not only mobile audio (and often video) communication available, But so much more really, a pocket computer, at your fingertips, 24/7, Communication, information, entertainment, and so much more, SO MUCH MORE…! Tho’ some might say …
224 Club

On My Own
On my own, I find myself, again and again, Not protesting, let me say, just observing, observing so, So around me all types, like us all, all types, nothing special do I boast, Just see, again and again, my little twist, why does it cause such a look? My perspective, quirky as it is, unique …
Stop Worrying
Something on your "to-do list" that never gets done. True dat, true dat, worry has been with me most all my days, near fifty years and counting, And sometimes I’ve gotten better at coping, sometimes not so much, funny how that is… Over decades the topics of worry multiply, funny how that is… Get better …
Slow You Roll
Good advice, slow your roll. When you do your work, in a flurry, don’t hurry, don’t speed through, More important to get it right, not just get it done, no fun to slip up, screw up, Don’t give up tho’, pause instead, reset your head, slow your roll, and try again.
