I'm probably the last person to hear this wording or concept, but after today, my life may just be improved having heard it. I've been engaged, much of the day, with a number of conversations on LinkedIn with people who may legitimately believe that when and because they have a thought, that not only is …

Epiphany
I have just had an epiphany. I think I've finally put a few concepts together for something that has NEVER, in my life, made a lick of sense. I had no idea at all what made successful people successful or what they were confident about. Success didn't make sense at all. Most of the popular …
Thresholds
Everyone has boundaries, even if they rarely get violated, or you don't know exactly what they are, or you DO know but do not enforce well with others. Those boundaries do exist and many of us were stretched beyond what we thought we were physically, mentally, and emotionally capable of only 5 years ago. Quite …
THE POST I’ve Been Unable to Conjure for Weeks
Someone very specific that I know will be VERY happy that I was (finally) inspired to cough this one up; believe me, it was hard going. As I write this brief intro, I'm still not entirely sure how I'll be going about telling this story. A more polished writer might choose not to get meta …

Musings

The Definition of Mansplaining
I've been trying to help my parents rid themselves of the canoe that they have owned and loved for 30 years. I generally try to avoid Craigslist for this sort of thing, but after my incredibly quaint idea of printing out flyers with my name/number on tags at the bottom, strategically placed near all the …
How Many Different Ways are there to See the World?
This question came to me the other day and the more I consider it, the more joy and hope I feel for humanity. Back up, allow me to explain. There are a few things we run into on this planet that are constant, fixed, measurable, do not fluctuate based on time or conditions, at least …

Happy New Year
Ahhhhhhhhhh. Let me just begin this post with a sigh. This year my company was gracious enough to give us all the holiday gift of a week off from Christmas to New Years and even though it's now Friday night and the week is coming to a close, I have truly felt about 15% less …
It’s Been a Minute, or Vibes
Time flies when you're having a good time, right? You might be thinking that I've been working on some magnum opus post since I've been "away" for so long, but I assure you nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is, I've just not had the spark hit at the right time for …
