The Power of Words
Words, I like them. I use them a lot. Words help me frame, outline, understand my circumstance. Words help me solve my problems. Words energize me. Words help me heal. Words are my salvation, the very fabric, the DNA by which I connect to others, to the world around me, to maybe just a little …
One Foot In…
You might think this is a blog post around not being committed, “…one foot in, one foot out…” But rather, it’s a quick nod to those who can successfully operate in multiple mindsets congruently. This particular skill set is valuable; this particular capability should be cultivated, nurtured, respected. I’ve often thought and believed in the …
Stretch
One of the truest, positive effects my friends have on me? They inspire me to stretch. Not all have this effect, but in a few cases, they certainly do.

A little laundry, not finished, A vacuum on the floor for a couple rooms, Really hot, sprinkler runs on the front lawn, shorts …
Wicked Lessons
Good lesson yesterday about adjusting, backing off, letting be, trusting. Letting go of the immediate, the angst. She taught me that yesterday. A lesson I hope will help us both in the future, especially as she transitions through adolescence to adulthood. I’ll be ready to listen; I’ll be ready to hold her, support her. And …
Wicked Dad
I remember when I was a kid, sometimes we used the word "wicked" to mean "cool", etc. I'd like to think I'm a "wicked dad" in that context....but just now, feeling pretty far from it. Weird day, best intentions sideways, some practical tasks completed, but big picture, I'm feeling wicked in the old-fashioned sense of …
