Serenity in Troubled Waters

The veil is lifted and what is seen? Fortune and fury. We bury the dead and cheer the child for walking. For what can a child do but follow in the footsteps of their elders? My footsteps will lead to Humbaba. When Baba is you Barbara Ann is too. Shakespeare wrote so well, it’s hardlyContinue reading “Serenity in Troubled Waters”

Every Word Counts

All kidding aside, I’m trying to be grown up about this. Serious solutions surrender themselves to soldiers of salvation. When the sun reaches it peak, it’s job is only half done. Day is only half of a day, and night has its own beauties. A tree will grow in the night or day according toContinue reading “Every Word Counts”

That cloud looks like a bluejay

I’m afraid this morning page has a bit of a prompt, I wanted to write about how much I love my wife and was thinking that it would be fun to go through Maslow’s Pyramid of Needs as jumping off points for what she gives me. I do worry though that maybe I love herContinue reading “That cloud looks like a bluejay”

Oof, that took a turn

You can’t tell me what to do, I’ll fly where I want to. There’s nothing to talk about, I’ve exhausted ever single combination possible to make with words, these are the last sentences on earth. I always said I would like my last words to be, “bury me alive.” That way either we’ll already haveContinue reading “Oof, that took a turn”

A Piece of Myself

Lot of 2’s in today’s date. Speaking of which, 2 things I learned from BEN(Boss Executive Neighbor) today was that I need to pay attention to the big picture values and the other was that I should be spending more time learning from him. Ok so I showed him my most recent painting and heContinue reading “A Piece of Myself”

That recent event everyone is talking about is ground breaking and life will never be the same

I just finished my daily drawing and wanted to get down some of my thoughts while they’re ruminating. I was tired of drawing today, it felt like the work was pilling up and that I’m not cut out to do this. A couple of factors I’d say go into making that feeling. First, I hadn’tContinue reading “That recent event everyone is talking about is ground breaking and life will never be the same”

Clawing their way to the top

It’s been a long time, but I didn’t do my morning pages yesterday and I think it calls for some restructuring. Winter teases out some laziness as we tend to hibernating. I was considering myself lucky if I got through Winter without gaining a bunch of weight, but I think we’re going to start toContinue reading “Clawing their way to the top”

McDonald’s is great

I was talking to my old friend Thunderclap today and boi did he let the truth fly. Get this, he told me that professional philosophers are rarely if ever significant philosophers. I’m sure there’s some sort of grey line and what comes to mind is the idea that often philosophers will have a preface toContinue reading “McDonald’s is great”

Loosen Rigidity

Rubberband man can’t stand. His bones have turned to gelly and he’s cascading to the ground. Concentric circles forming a rubber volcano. I feel like that last sentence needed a primer to hibachi because I’m thinking of when they stack the onion rings and make it shoot steam. I saw my therapist today. I supposeContinue reading “Loosen Rigidity”

Who will be at the helm when the winds shift?

I took things easy the last two days and will probably stay easy over the weekend because I was starting to get overwhelmed with everything I have going on. I was still looking to add more before this feeling took hold of me, so it’s good that I was able to have this break otherwiseContinue reading “Who will be at the helm when the winds shift?”
