Power Visions (Purple 2.0 Edition)
Embrace The Power I haven’t done a PV post in a minute or two, so I figured why the hell not? Some days, we truly feel like we have been utterly, totally defeated. We wake up and ask ourselves “Why me?” “Why do I feel lousy again?” “Why do I feel so hopeless?” “When will…

Battle Tested
01/15/25: I took this post down a few days ago because upon rereading it, I was not sure that I had really sent the message I wished to. At the time, I was not completely satisfied with it. I had debated editing or deleting it and starting over again. To be fair, I have been…

Action in action
Another post from the archives. This one is interesting to look back on for me. I did indeed complete the 8-week course and earned multiple certifications, with, I am proud to say, the highest completion rate in the history of the program. I don’t recall off the top of my head, but it was between…

Power Visions: Magenta
PERHAPS THE GREATEST POWER ONE CAN POSSIBLY HAVE IS PERSEVERANCE. I didn’t really have any posts planned for today, but I was awake early and felt the need to try doing something creative. Power can come in many different forms, and we all have our own unique powers. Some may be physically stronger than others,…

The Climb (Expectations)
I climb I fall I climb again I fall again Why? Why do I continue? The cuts The bruises The pain The mental scars Is it worth it? Why? The criticism The ridicule The expectations The expectations. I was not put here To live up to expectations I was put here… To defy them. ©The…

Power Visions (The Green Edition)
SOMETIMES WE MUST DIG DEEP TO FIND OUR POWER. I am writing this post following yet another night of minimal sleep. Lately, I have been having issues with proper rest, and quite frankly, it’s not been getting better. As we all know, poor sleep can affect your mood, your judgement, your physical state… In short,…

Power Visions (The Purple Edition)
POWER KNOWS NO BOUNDARIES. Power, much like a lot of things in life, comes in many different shades, colors and forms. We all have an inner power. Sometimes several. Sometimes we may wish we had one form of inner power that another has demonstrated. But perhaps, just maybe, they might also wish they had yours…

Power Visions (The Gold Edition)
YOUR INNER POWERS ARE YOUR TRUE RICHES. The idea for this installment was next in line after the Blue and Red editions of PV. While some of my recent posts have talked about maximizing funds for least effort, there are old adages about true wealth being more than monetary. The people you surround yourself with,…

Power Visions (The Red Edition)
YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE POWER I created this “Red” edition of PV on the same day I created the “Blue” version. As I said in that post, I am currently just chasing whatever creative whims come to me. Every one of them might not be a home run, but it satisfies me at this stage…

Power Visions (The Blue Edition)
THE POWER IS YOURS FOR THE TAKING. YOU NEED ONLY ACCEPT IT. As you can see, I decided to try something a bit different for a change. During my couple days away, one of the thoughts that kept circling back to me was that I wanted to get back to some of the things I…

Call To Arms
A call to battle Call to arms A call to war A call to fight A call to win To show your might A call to drive Forward still A call to push And take the hill Sweet victory It calls your name Will you heed the call? Or stay the same? Your call to…

What Lies Ahead
An open door in front of me What lies ahead, a mystery Another walk towards the unknown Security, aside I’ve thrown Abandoned comfort, left behind Far too late, can’t change my mind I raise my head and hold it high As I turn around and say goodbye What lies ahead, I soon shall see Through…
