I now know that I have gotten it all wrong. That rope there should LOOK good, not be strong. That phone should be modern, stylish and chic. And not make you look like a total geek. That car should say, “You ARE the man!” And not be something practical, like a van. Silly me, I […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In the few years I have been blogging, the whole concept of WHY I blog often settles in. Every time it happens, I end up having a dry period, wondering “What exactly is it I am doing here? What do I hope to accomplish?” I then wander around in circles for a bit (mostly figuratively), […]
I am feeling feisty today. Which means maybe it is time for a good ole rant. Haven’t had one for a while. But since I don’t have a specific rant at the moment, I will try something new … a stream of conscious rant. Who knows what I might “yell” about next? I guess my […]
I woke up one morning feeling very unmotivated. I just could not find any good reason to do much of … well … anything. Usually I have all sorts of ideas of what I might like to do now, but that particular now, I simply had nothing. Something was simply … missing. I thought for […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]As part of my pursuit of a better me, I use Lumosity. Lumosity is a site devoted to exercising the brain. I have always believed keeping the brain strong is just as important as keeping the body healthy. Add to this the history in my family of brain related diseases (Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Parkinson’s), I want […]
I am trying something new. Trying something new is not actually new to me. A me that was was always trying something new … often so much that it is questionable if anything ever got old. More recent mes seem to have gotten mired in the old, and maybe even a little … frightened … […]
Yep. I don’t get it. I used to think I had a clue. But the more I wander through this thing we call life … the more that I realize how clueless I really am. Especially about people. Last I checked, I fall in the category of people, but sometimes I wonder if I am […]
When I first started blogging, I never thought I would be a blogger. I did it out of sheer boredom and a desperate attempt for self validation. Who knew that 3+ years later I would not only have (or be involved in) 5 blogs, all of them on domains of their own now, and be […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]As some may have noticed … I have been quiet for a while again. This is not so new for me. Periodically I just have nothing to say. Sometimes it is depression. Sometimes I am actually busy in the “real” world. And sometimes it is more complicated. This was one of those times. In recent […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I am not sure what it is about modern civilization, but somehow as life becomes easier through advances in technology, we have lost not only the concept of personal responsibility, but responsibility for person. The more streamlined and mechanized everything becomes, the more we learn about taking the easy way. We are losing the ability think for ourselves. We […]
