Turning the Page

As life goes on, I often find inspiration to write through what I experience. The inspiration is strongest when a shift occurs or when something dramatic happens.  Yesterday, another chapter of my life came to an end. This chapter didn’t last very long, although at one point I was sure that it would. But theContinueContinue reading “Turning the Page”

MY UNIVERSE KNOWS ME

Serendipity A funny thing happened on my way to becoming a published author. I have two creative nonfiction articles out there in the ether. I’ve been waiting for over four months for a reply from the publications I submitted them to. I’m also currently working on my first novel. My focus, career wise, was solelyContinueContinue reading “MY UNIVERSE KNOWS ME”

Ramblings about COVID-19

The liquor store will be closed after today. I had to run out and grab a bottle. Personally, I think the world is overreacting a bit. Governments should put the onus on the citizens themselves to decide if they want to stay indoors or not. I’m an introvert. I stay six feet away from peopleContinueContinue reading “Ramblings about COVID-19”

Musings on the Current State of Society

*Disclaimer: I am not an anthropologist. I am merely interested in a lot of things and as I write this blog post, this subject happens to be at the forefront of my thoughts.

Musings on Being a 42 Year Old Man

If I don’t stretch every morning, which I don’t, my body will feel it’s age. On the days that I do stretch, like today, I can feel the difference. My body is more loose, more agile and ready to go. I can’t recall if this was true when I was in my 20’s, but I’mContinueContinue reading “Musings on Being a 42 Year Old Man”

Musings on Having a 19 Year Old Child

Me and my son at his high school graduation Today my oldest turned 19. It’s a happy day for him, but if I’m completely honest with myself, which is something that I take pride in doing, I have to admit that it kind if sucks for me. I mean, yeah I’m happy that he’s becomingContinueContinue reading “Musings on Having a 19 Year Old Child”

PARADIGM SHIFT

Is it possible for an introvert to become an extrovert? As I head into my mid forties, this question has become more prevalent. In my thirties, the very thought of having extroverted tendencies was laughable. I had absolutely no desire to be social in any way. However, recent changes in my life has made meContinueContinue reading “PARADIGM SHIFT”
