  • Where’s Your Fire?

    Some days you just have enough and need to let it out. More and more lately, I encounter people who have grandiose ideas, wild ambitions, and signs that they’ve found their true calling. In and of itself, that would be awesome and I applaud that. The problem comes when they hit a roadblock or realize…

  • You Can Never Get Too Low…

    You Can Never Get Too Low…

    Note: Another repost. I changed a couple small things and added an image. Hopefully someone, somewhere gets something out of this piece. Originally posted 01/08/24. For the past couple of days I have been struggling a bit with what to write. I’ve mostly been responding to the daily prompts and playing around with image creator…

  • The Perils of External Validation

    The Perils of External Validation

    Note: Something I read today brought this old post to mind, so I decided to put it up again. Changed the featured image and made some small edits, but the piece remains unchanged beyond that. Everyone loves to be loved. It’s just a simple fact of life. We humans are social creatures and we need…

  • The Quest For World Domination…

    Begins again next week. Got the call a couple hours ago. I’ll be officially starting the new job next Tuesday. 👍 I’ll be on days for a short spell for on-boarding and training. After that, I will transition over to my normal rotation. The march to world dominance resumes! 😄

  • Back In The Game!

    Back In The Game!

    So, as anyone who has been around a little bit probably knows, I started this silly little blog after I lost my job and had some free time on my hands. Truthfully, I figured I would start in December and ditch it by January, but here I am still. 😄 So anyhow, I spent some…

  • To My Little Sister

    The following post is addressed to Aastha from Literary Evaluation Blog. Dear Little Sister, As you prepare to embark on a new and exciting journey, I wanted to take a moment to wish you the absolute best of luck and good fortune. In the short time we have known each other, you have touched me,…

  • When the Stone Crushes You

    When the Stone Crushes You

    Apologies in advance for what is mostly going to be a stream of consciousness ramble. Yes, the title and images are a reference to Sisyphus and that pesky stone. Most days as of late, the stone feels pretty light, honestly. Akin to carrying a pebble in your pocket. Barely noticeable. But a couple days ago,…

  • Back to School (One Month In)

    Back to School (One Month In)

    So, it’s been a few weeks since I did an update on the whole class thing. For those interested, my previous posts are linked below. First Day Of School! Back to School (One Week Down!) Anyhow, it’s the end of the fourth week of this course and it’s going pretty well. I’ve earned quite a…

  • Bury Yourself

    Good day to everyone! A funny thing happened to me along the path of this little blogging adventure. When I started it, my intention was to post about some of the challenges I’d come up against and the lessons I had learned along the way. My hope was to help others and bring some positive…

  • Your Time Is Gonna Come

    Your Time Is Gonna Come

    You know, every now and then the universe gives you those little reminders that it’s on your side. Talk about synchronicity. Just this morning, Adarsh G wrote a post about Karma. Well, round about the same time he posted that, I got word that someone who had been sticking multiple knives in my back at…

  • Challenge Accepted (Prompt: 1/1/24)

    Challenge Accepted (Prompt: 1/1/24)

    First and foremost, a Happy New Year to one and all! I hope this year brings infinite blessings to each and every one of you! Well, I guess it’s somewhat appropriate to start off the new year ready to dig into some challenges, so here we go! My biggest challenges have really been the ones…

  • Action in action

    Action in action

    A few of my recent posts have dealt with the concept of taking action. Over the past couple weeks I’ve been trying to take lots of actions even if they were smaller ones in deference to the mindset that any forward motion is progress. I will say it’s certainly been helpful in keeping me away…
