State of Emergency
In high school a close friend of mine’s boyfriend was in a serious motorcycle accident. He was the brother of another close childhood friend. I was going to my girl friend’s house when her parents told me about the accident and that she was down near our local store. I went and picked her up;…

TWWs
Well this week has been much better. I managed to take the first steps to get myself back to the gym. Although I did not quite get back to my regular routine, I did get a start, which is half the battle! 😀 It helped to have a couple of random people mention to me…

Podcast Fav 9: S-Town UPDATE
As promised, I am here to update on my post about the podcast S-Town. Although M gave up on the podcast because the story was advertised as something different than it turned out to be, I found myself enjoying the narrative and continued through.

The Human Condition
This weekend is a long one to celebrate the Prophet’s Ascension much like we rejoice in Christ’s rising for Easter. How they differ I don’t know…. Anyway, it has been a full weekend of socializing and a couple of late nights. One evening we spent talking with a friend about human nature and our expectations…

TWWs
This week has been a bit better for my own physical activity outside of my teaching hours. Getting myself active again and working out a regular routine is a must I have realized. Funny how easy it is to just let the body go, but what a dramatic effect it has on the psyche and…

Undercurrents
In the same way that I feel as if there is something big about to happen to change the course of our current pattern, I also feel darkness boiling and bubbling underneath. I wonder if it is connected to the highs and lows that cycle through my brain. Or, perhaps it is the balance of…
