Surrender to Win
I used to have an AA sponsor who often said he was waving his little white flag. I’ve also heard that surrendering is not admitting defeat, but choosing to join the winning side. Now whether you want to be restrained or not by such social constructs as winning and losing (since we live in a…

The Miracles of Marriage and Motorcycles
Strap in folks! You are about to go for one hell of a ride! This week in the life and times of yours truly some major shit has gone down! Okay, okay… Enough fucking around (also what she said). Let’s try to get a coherent thought out that doesn’t contain profanity or a euphemism. Hmmmm….…

Titleless Blog
Yes, “titleless” is not a word except I just typed it and so now it is. Aren’t words fun? 😜 It begs the question as to whether it matters what words we use, spelled incorrectly or not, as long as you know what I fucking mean… Right? At least, that’s what I’ll keep telling myself.…

Ah yes… motivation – that somewhat elusive state I hear so many talk about. I’ve heard fitness and…

Cave Day
I find it remarkable that on the Summer Solstice I am focused more on going inward than outward… If you’ve been reading my posts, you know that I am on a journey of transformation. If you’ve been reading my posts, you are also on a journey of transformation. As we celebrate the longest day of…

Metamorphosis
I don’t know about you, but when I think of metamorphosis, I usually associate it with a caterpillar becoming a butterfly… In fact, I’m so focused on the butterfly, I don’t consider that the word metamorphosis is actually several stages of change. The dictionary says… (in an insect or amphibian) the process of transformation from…
