Those that know my hobbies and passions, may assume that this article relates to hiking. That wouldn’t be a big stretch, as I have written about the woods, forest, mountains, and nature, on occasion. Those who have read even more of my material, might think this article is about something fantastic, or a short story, […]

Dreams, Nightmares, Double IPAs
Once in a great while, I have a vivid, incredibly affective, and terrifying dream. It’s one that I’ve had on many earlier occasions, but time between its reemergence seems to become greater as the years pass. Though it has been a while, I’m confident that I will still have this dream at some point in […]

A tingling upon the finger of an outstretched hand
When we sense the summit, we accept, and embrace all that the world throws at us. We know, its just another hill to ascend, another obstacle our weak grasp upon humanity will have thrown in our path. We shed our fears. We toss aside the hindrances of our past. We disregard the previous desires of […]
Hoppy Madness!

Any time sounds like a great time for an ipa challenge! There’s couldn’t be a situation you could think of, where having an ipa throw down, might not seem like a […]
VOIDINTOHOPEEPOHOTNIDIOV
Never, is there a time and place to replace, that which is lost. Naught is the spot to look for that which was mistook. No more, is the area we canvas for that which can’t be fixed. Nothing, is the void, where we stash all we once held close. No chance, is what we give […]
Human Perplexitude
It’s curious, to think, that once, man had to rely upon himself, herself, to make the pieces fit. All the incongruities, inconsistencies, and vagaries in the big picture were left to the individual, trying to piece together, the fragmented life-scene inside of themselves. There was struggle, frustration, challenge in perspective, failure, and ultimately, though a […]
Alone as a God
How do you imagine it would feel like, to be a god? According to most religious, or mythological ideologies, gods are typically thought of as incredibly powerful, potentially omniscient, probably possessing some, supernaturally potent ability, and, depending on the religious, or mythological group, having the best moral compass possible, and caring, without limits, about human […]
Of a Chance
At the outset, the possibilities were many, the future was bright and hopeful, the outlook was wantonly optimistic. The broad scope of mutual intent, the want and promise of the world, could not be fully delivered for, or by either. So, in incrementally, tiny, measures, the euphoria did fade, and the emotional expanse, and all of […]
The Peace of a Forest in Winter
The hushed, slow exhalations of the god of clouds, and the rhythmic crunch of footfalls on the ground, were the only noises, around. Brown, bare, trunks, and remnants of leaves, branches, and things that used to be green, was all that could be seen. Breath escaped my mouth in ghostly bursts, as the sun pleaded […]
