So often my mind focused on things to do, tasks, progress; so often my next thought is, slow your roll, dude…! As RUSH sings in the song “Second Nature”, “…I know that progress has no patience, but something’s got to give…” During this hot July Fourth weekend, listening to the fans swirl in the early …

Calm, Cork
I’ve got a work buddy who recently posted while visiting his family in Cork, Ireland. I was thinking how good it was to see him there with his son, getting some very valuable fam time,especially for his kid. All good. A bit earlier in the day I was thinking how overall calm I felt, stark …

Slumber, Slim
The fewest words might describe, Oh, how I have felt, lived, thrived…? Slim might indicate few words, but I think otherwise, Space between struggle and satisfied, often, so often, not much, Struggle each day with learning, doing, being, Struggle to satisfy inside, outside, slim line, slim line, just reach the line, Line to cross, end …

Nap Time
Weekend, unexplained angst, again. To start the day. Meh. Got early for a long walk, one of my newly established practices, in pursuit of better health. Once home, did a couple light chores, then off on an errand to the store. Low-simmer angst still bubbling. And so, late morning still, turning to one of my …
Bourdain Day
Missed the declaration, until the afternoon, Bourdain Day. Not hard to celebrate his life, his contributions, his spirit… Another one gone too soon… A few snippets capture, a sense, the sense, of who he was, and how he affected those around him…
Bits
Bits of story, Bits of drink, Bits of rest, Time to think, A few more bits keep my spirit high, A few more bits, another try, Rest long and deep, into the night, Just one more bit, sure feels right, Nothing more, not another bit now, Satisfied, good and how.
1/2_Full, All GOOD
