When we settle for something in our lives, whether that’s a relationship, a job, or a friend, we’re telling ourselves that we don’t deserve anything better. What a sad state of affairs. Let’s find a way to immediately wipe those insecure and self-defeating thoughts out of our heads! It’s not a suggestion. This is real […]
Me and sleep have this weird relationship. Some nights I can fall asleep fast and sleep for hours before mother nature calls. Then I get back into bed, my mind starts going, and I cannot sleep. This phenomenon usually happens around 3:00 a.m. Sometimes at 3:33 a.m., which makes it weirder. (I wrote a song […]
A friend of mine who’s a musician posts his schedule on Facebook each week. I see it. I hit the like button. And I scroll on. Last week, I noticed two shares on the Facebook post, and I thought he was not asking anyone to share this, but two people did. That’s nice to be […]
I thought I’d mix it up and write about some things I just don’t get. See if you agree. I don’t get how people could walk across the street without ever looking and, what, believe they are superheroes that can go through a 3,000 lb. vehicle coming at them? Do we have to blame Marvel […]
I thought about the idea of telling someone, “I love you.” I do it a lot, maybe more than I should. I don’t know if there’s proper etiquette for how many times you can say ‘I love you.” It’s a personal thing. Saying it is one thing, but there are ways to say ‘I love […]
A contestant on America’s Got Talent sang a silly song about wanting more Parmesan cheese. Simon Cowell, one of the judges, hit the X button quickly, and then the other judges followed, giving him four Xs, which meant he was done. Still, the guy kept singing to the audience and didn’t let the judges’ Xs […]
Something struck me this morning when I was getting up that stuck with me, and I have to write about it. I think it might be helpful to someone else. Just a few years ago, I was sleeping through life. I was not happy, but I wasn’t unhappy. I didn’t know what I was. I […]
I made a boo-boo. I thought one thing, but I was wrong. I fessed up. I said I was sorry. The other person said no problem. Done. That’s simple life right there. But, still, some people aren’t holding themselves accountable. Blaming is easy, too, right, but it doesn’t help matters – and by matters, I […]
I saw a mentalist perform card tricks. He was fantastic! I recommend one if you have a party and want some great entertainment. Anyway, he did some tricks with a deck of cards. Last night I woke in the middle of the night and could not fall asleep. It was so frustrating! But I got […]
I watched the movie Air about how Michael Jordon got hooked up with Nike. It was set in 1984, and the music soundtrack resonated with me since I graduated high school that year. The music didn’t bring back specific memories but it gave me a feeling. When I heard Money for Nothing by Dire Straits, […]
