Believe you can and you’re halfway there. Theodore Roosevelt Believe in the person you are and will be. I had a hard time believing in myself for a long time.

Fell?
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. Confucius I’m here with this quote and a story. One time in about 3rd grade, I was riding bikes with my brother, hit a pothole, flipped over the handlebars. I scraped my forehead, got the wind knocked out of me,Continue reading “Fell?”
Strawberry Raincoat
and yard work in the rain In the beginning of the week, I asked my little one to pick up sticks with me over the weekend. When the weekend finally arrived, I told her it was raining. Before I could get to the bad news, that we would have to reschedule our yard work day,Continue reading “Strawberry Raincoat”
But You
There’s going to be days when you screw up. I don’t like those days, most of us don’t. On those days I want to crawl into a hole and hide until it all blows over. Believe it or not, I used to shame myself with my own weird self-punishing rituals like not allowing myself myContinue reading “But You”
Mediums
Literature is one of the most interesting and significant expressions of humanity. P. T. Barnum I like art. I like most mediums (some gorey things not so much). So what I’m saying is, I can’t even come close to agreeing that literature is the most interesting or significant form of expression. There’s too many creativeContinue reading “Mediums”

No, I’m not interested in politics. I have zero interest. I have interest in hope and people. Jay-Z I don’t listen to enough Jay-Z but I can appreciate these words for what they are right here. I do appreciate hope in most things. What is there if we don’t envision a better future for ourselvesContinue reading “Hope and Saving Lives”
Creators
To create one’s world in any of the arts takes courage. Georgia O’Keeffe I think to create ones world in general takes courage. We are taught in so many ways that creation is outside of us. That creation resides in anything but the human soul. I think this diminishes our humanity. We were made inContinue reading “Creators”
Time
The only reason for time is so that everything doesn’t happen at once. Albert Einstein I appreciate having some structure and order in my life. I also appreciate when things happen in a nice linear fashion, but we don’t always get those options. Time is an interesting thing. I like to think about Einstein’s theoriesContinue reading “Time”
