What is the most important thing to do before crossing the street? To be fair, we are taught to do one whole thing, that is comprised of multiple actions. What we are told to do is to make sure we look both ways. This command is broken down into several steps. The most obvious steps, are […]

Happen to or happen for?
Things, quite simply, are going to happen. They will happen without our knowledge. They will occur beyond our scope or perception. Things, events, and circumstances, will continuously occur. Of the trillions upon trillions of these events that happen, every day, to billions of human beings, some will affect us. What we have in our power, […]
Wrap
We obsess over the cloth that goes over the skin, on the body, we live in. If only we spent more time on our hearts, muscles, and minds. Maybe we could win, in the skin we are given. Instead of wrapping in twine our languor, shame, and decline. Humbly yours j
