Last week was a bit crazy with all of my appointments, service commitments, and school. I am looking forward to a more chill week ahead. This is my last full week before my family arrives so I need to try to commit to getting sections of the house in tip-top shape so I am not… Continue reading Week Ahead – 05/16/22

Today’s Tasks
I offically missed my first day of writing yesterday for the first time in I think over a week. I had a nice trend going. I honestly couldn't think of anything to say and again the idea of trying to be creative and come up with some kind of story I just wasn't feeling. Today… Continue reading Today’s Tasks
Human Emotions
Emotions are interesting. To be going along and all of the sudden a pang of pain from nowhere right in the center of your chest. Because we rarely talk about these experiences it makes me wonder how often this happens to other people. For me, I'd say it happens at least 4 to 5 times… Continue reading Human Emotions
Love of Reading
I've not been feeling very creative lately hence I've not attempted any word of the day or short story writing exercises. Just some general journals, so that I am still meeting my commitment to daily writing. It gets overwhelming when I am in school. The idea of doing anything creative is exhausting. So let's just… Continue reading Love of Reading
Words Are Magic
The best thing about writing is you can build anything with words. They are yours and like boards put together for sale, others can choose to procure or ignore the retail. When you write, you can be outlandish and egotistic. Or factual and realistic. You can be sappy and romantic, professing love that will never… Continue reading Words Are Magic

Lesson on Skills
From as far back as I can remember there has been something inside of me that has yearned to build something. When I was a kid I would go into my dad's garage with a piece of wood and I envisioned I would walk out with some sort of master-crafted artwork. What I usually walked… Continue reading Lesson on Skills
The Walleteer
He staggered attempting to keep his footing against the swirling earth below his unkempt kegs. The morning commuters avoided looking in his direction with annoyance and pity on their face. The walleteer in his unbuttoned long sleeve shirt and tattered jeans with his hair in omnishambles made every attempt to schmooze passersby. His dirt-covered hands… Continue reading The Walleteer
Flexing
Each day sitting down to type, assimilating words into something that didn't previously exist. It mirrors the type of creativity that one partakes in when you find figures in the clouds. It is similar to the connect the dot drawings created as kids. Free association of sorts, whatever the hidden words lay dusted within the… Continue reading Flexing
Curious Creative Seeker
Writing Exercise - Word of the Day (04/30) I get it. It is scary having a nefarious disease. Therefore, having a structured program that promises basically freedom of bondage from self and addiction, feels very safe. If I can do this one thing perfectly, this presents to my community an image of goodness and well-being.… Continue reading Curious Creative Seeker
