The dust has almost settled…
It’s been a journey. This dynamic life shift has been very trying. Every day is a challenge. Deconstructing one life in order to start breaking ground on a new one… Things needed to be done in a certain manner. A manner in which most people couldn’t wrap their minds around. Every move was methodically thought…
par·a·digm shift/ˈperəˌdīm SHift/
I told a friend once I felt a paradigm shift coming in my life. That was nearly one year ago. My new journey started 3 years ago, but the true shift start last year. I’ve been in hiding for too long now. Finally, I have positioned myself to open up and start dealing with real…
Happy Valentine’s Day
Some 1st encounters replay in your mind for years for some unknown reason… this was similar to mine… https://youtu.be/UYPoMjR6-Ao Years pass in between that first meeting. Life’s twists and turns bring about emotions expressed so very well here after a second unlikely connection… https://youtu.be/S6Y1gohk5-A Happy Valentine’s Day. En dag min blomma.
Goodbye friend…
Christopher Lawrence Ayotte… Born February 10th, 1977. Chris passed away October 24th, 2020. Chris was 43 years old. Gone too soon. So many questions. My first experience losing someone I have known nearly half of my life. The parties, road trips, basketball games, football games, strip clubs, golf outings, singing, dancing, late night guy talk…
New truck radio
Tonight, I successfully installed a new radio in my truck. Well, mostly successful… This whole thing has been a test for me, but tonight, I am the victor! I love my truck. I never in a thousand years thought I would say that. I always drove a four door sedan. Grandpa cars. I loved them.…
Scars over callous
A very wise person whom I deeply love and respect once told me during my divorce that my heart would be hardened to further hurt. I loved my 1st wife dearly. Parts of me still does. We were young. Not highschool sweethearts. Worse. We were early twenties, semi sexually experienced, drunk house party love. ‘All…
A good night
There was a meteor shower tonight. It was the coolest. I was darting in and out after sunset looking for the 1st one. I saw it! I made a quick wish for myself and announced it has begun! Shooting stars in every direction. Some low. Some high. Some short runs and some with long tails.…
Human Resources
From day one I understood the importance of resources. I specify human resources here. Not videos. Not meditation. Not a song. But a resource of a human being. Talking… Build as many as you can. Categorize them properly. Do a regular check up on those resources. Even good people with the greatest intentions will come…
Weekend observations
Two weekends in a row. Go, go, go! Not an attempt at a new cheer but that is how the weekends have gone. This Rona thing has got everyone crazy. People wanting to venture out who have not yet. People who have gotten out but are now wandering farther from home base. It seems we…
Reflection
It’s been 2+ years since alcohol has touched my lips. Well, once at a bar when the waitress mistakenly mixed up orders and I got a tongue splash of rum and coke… But that is another story. But yes, it’s crazy to think it’s been that long since I have had alcohol in my body.…
