Happy Sunday, Everyone! It’s Cider and Doughnut season! This post is going to be a short one today as I’m going to simultaneously stuff myself and try to get as much stuff done outdoors as possible before the rain sets in…if it sets in. Here’s hoping you find something for yourself today that brings you …
If you’ve bene following this blog (Thanks!) for, really, any length of time, you’ll know that I love me a good list. I love making lists. Lists of things to do, lists of bands, lists of books, lists, lists, lists. Part of the reason for that is due to the fact that I need things …
Today, I’d like to talk about a couple of terms that have been on my mind lately, thanks to the guys at the High Performance Podcast. Passion and Purpose. A passion is something that you’re jazzed about. For me it’s Music, Stories, Nature, Photography, just to name a few. The thing about passions is that …
Yesterday was pretty busy. Ok, Saturdays usually are. It’s the day I can start to get caught up on all the stuff that I’d like to do, but which get slid over onto the back burner in favor of the demands of the Day-to-Day. It could have been busier still because, for a while there, …

Here we are, at the halfway point in my quest for rest this month and…I’m starting to think that I wouldn’t know what true rest was if I tripped over it. Ok that might not be exactly true, but it sure is a hard to come by thing. Part of it is the muscle memory …
If you’d read Last Week’s Post, (Thanks!) you’ll know that I intended to make this July a month of introspection and rest. Well here we are after one full week and let me tell you what I’ve learned so far. First, I was so focused on the idea of “Rest” that I hadn’t really defined …
There are two times of the year when I get really introspective. I mean the mood can come on at any time really, but those two times of the year really flip that switch. The first is the New Year. For me, it’s natural to look back and reflect, and also to look forward and …
This will be the final Sunday Blog Post for the month. There’s still a Five-Thing Thursday coming before the calendar clicks over. And, as you might have gleaned from the title, June has been…a bit more intense than most of the other months this year. I won’t get into details, but let’s just say that …
