Others’ Opinions & Perceptions
Monday morning, the 12 th of January 2026, and my belly is full of oatmeal, my morning smoothie, and the red raspberry tea I’m sipping on as I write this entry. My morning exercise put my body on autopilot and I swam in the Day-Dream. I felt an immersion of ideas and perceptions that reconciled in a simple knowing and direction for me and my journey in 2026. I realized how Others’ Opinions Ruin Life. Think about your favorite song. You love it. You vibe with it. You’re

Hello, 2026! Word of the Year: Revolution
Another year, another entry detailing the hopes, wishes, and desires for the course of the next twelve months. I'm brewing my afternoon cup of coffee as I'm nourishing a happy belly full of some delicious avocado + tomato toast! The creamy texture and juicy bites help me to combat my body's desire to suck on a metal nipple aka nicotine vape. Its been 4 Days 16 Hours 18 Minutes and 9 Seconds since I quite nicotine/vaping/smoking. I guess I got ahead of any New Years' Resolutio

December 5 th , 20 days until Christmas 2025, and I’m bundled up at my desk ready to write a new blog entry as I battle the winds-of-upcoming-winter! I haven’t sat down to write a new blog entry in a while. The Muse hasn’t Inspired me to write anything other than my weekly newsletter…but Inspiration’s lightning bolt struck! Last night, I went to see the Theresa Caputo show in Huntington, NY. My love, my dad’s fiancé, and myself all traveled an hour west to a village where

The Great Uniter
In a world where everything is supercharged with emotion, beliefs, and reaction-olympics...a world that is incredibly polarized...neighbors, friends, and family members pinned against one another...there is something that unites us all. Death is The Great Uniter. What a great statement and I wish that I could recall the person who originally coined that phrase. What unites us all? What do we all face eventually in this journey of Life? What is an aspect of our experience we a

Physical Action & Assessment for Solutions
Tuesday morning, ten days before Halloween 2025, and I'm sippin' on some lemon water after returning home from the gym. My morning exercise is crucial for my overall wellbeing! My body shifts into autopilot while my mind enters the Day-Dream State. It is almost like I push a button to engage in auto-mode where my legs keep moving and my mind swims in an ocean. I was inspired to write about the necessity to not neglect the Physical Body while pursuing a 'spiritual state' of ex
