  • Print. Your. Pictures

    If you’re like me you have a phone that probably has thousands of pictures. From random snaps out and about to composed shots that you absolutely love. How often do you look at them? For me, I rarely ever go back and scroll through them. In my last post I mentioned that I’d moved to…

  • How Do You Remember?

    I find myself realizing a lot lately that I am in the midst of “The Good Ole Days”. It finally feels like those moments that I’ve wanted for so long, the hanging out with friends around a campfire, the close intimate dinners and conversations with a partner are finally happening for me! How do I…

  • ReEvaluating

    This isn’t the the first post of 2026 I planned on making, in fact I just decided to write this about 30 seconds ago. I’m not planning on making any edits here so it’s going to be a stream of consciousness type post. I read and listen to a lot of of “self help/philosophy/big question”…

  • So Hard

    Why is it so hard to believe in myself? I’m laying here at almost midnight and my brain is running through all the ways I can fail both profesionally and personally. That in and of itself isn’t a new thing for me. Most nights I have those thoughts, hell, most days I have to those…

  • Finding the Time

    Lately I’ve found myself struggling to manage my time. Life has been busy, fulfilling, but definitely busy so finding time to spend time with my partner, get things done around the house, tend to my own mental health and just time to do nothing has been a struggle. I’ve gone from having to just manage…

  • On Life: As it is now

    It’s been a while since I’ve felt the need to post anything here. I’ve had ideas come to mind but they’ve been fleeting. I used to only feel the need to write when things were bad or difficult and lately things have been very good! I want to bring balance to my writing and so…

  • The Power of Words

    I’ve written about getting seriously into poetry earlier this year and it all started with a book by Iain S. Thomas called Everything You Cannot Say. I randomly picked up this book at a new local bookstore called Blackbird Coffee and Books and before I knew it I was over halfway through it and had…

  • Rough Month

    May isn’t my favorite month. Between Mother’s Day, mom’s birthday and then dad’s birthday a few days later I tend to withdraw and kind of shutdown, or that’s what I’ve done the last 2 years. This year is different though. The sadness is still there but I’ve learned to acknowledge it and to sit with…

  • Mother’s Day

    This will be the 2nd Mother’s Day since mom died. She wasn’t the biggest fan of the holiday, or so she said, but the few times I forgot I could tell it affected her. From then on I did my best to at least get her a card and/or a plant even when I wasn’t…

  • On Being Emotional

    I’m an emotional guy and I was a very emotional child because I didn’t know how to handle my emotions and the adults around me growing up didn’t always know how to handle me feeling things. So I turned off my emotions and kept them off for a very long time. This impacted every relationship…
