And so it goes, at home

motel room — Reunited and it feels so good.

Happy present moment.

You know what never gets old?

Living in the present moment.

A few minutes ago, it dawned on me that the paperwork of life can frequently feel overwhelming because there’s so much to do.

You create a life, get married, start a career, buy a house, buy a bunch of stuff to make your house a home, perhaps raise some children, and as you approach and arrive at midlife, you start to question everything.

Back to that thought i had a few minutes ago, we habitually race through all the administrative and decision-making tasks. And i thought what if we could streamline life so that every task that we had to do and decision we had to make we could be fully present for it and enjoy it and appreciate it in a way that racing never reveals?

Blog anniversary (not) in GNP, home

i have no idea how an impossible 2009 April Fools Day, 100-day self-imposed writer’s bootcamp challenge morphed into the start of a 16th consecutive year in 2024.

It’s not impossible that i write five daily, differently-themed blog posts until the day i die.

Not Back to Glacier, home

Looking up at a bird on a wire — The blessing of sight. The blessing of a flexible neck. The blessing of curiosity. The blessing of presence. The blessing of appreciation. The blessing of symbiosis. The blessings of gratitude and surrender. Photo: Spring 2023, looking up at a Cardinal during a morning walk. Cardinals are generally skittish. To be directly beneath one is rare. i enjoyed it so much, the photo was taken as proof of that present moment.

If i started writing a list of all the things i’m grateful for, it would never be finished.

Hearing the Cardinal’s ‘singing’ got my attention. Expecting the Cardinal to fly away, imagine the surprise standing underneath it while it continued it’s chirping.
