You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?
Train
first stop..slow
where do you go when the world
seems not in your favor
second stop.. show
where do you go when you need a savior
you can tell he favors, her
third stop…home
Where do you go when your body tired
mind tripping, ego spiking
until the next time you on the tracks.

“Stop signs for me are a kind of hectic, achey, ‘tired & wired’ feeling. When I push myself I sometimes feel the energy leaking away like sand sliding faster through an hour glass, or a the air from a punctured tire. That’s when the Shoulds start: “I should have the energy to do this, I should meet my commitments, I should know better than to overcommit”. , I’m learning to respond with, “hang on, I SHOULD respect my natural limits, even when chasing my dreams, & other people should respect the boundary of my health & wellbeing”.
– Michelle Spencer
“I frequently start projects or
ideas that excite me and then one
day, somewhere in the cosmos,
the clock strikes midnight and the
idea turns back into a pumpkin.
Sometimes I wonder if maybe I’m
some sort of energetic rest stop
for ideas on the journey to their
person.”
-Katelyn Hamper
it looks different for everyone

it’s bills paid
stress less
getting laid
savings galore
love of self
and good health

i challenge myself
30 days here, 30 days there
keep my writing muscles firm
that’s how I learn
what I do like and what I don’t
the likes on the post, won’t
deter me or steer me in a direction
I don’t wanna go
that’s if you wondered
now you know.

we’re here
who is we?
I’m still trying to find my way
still?
I thought I had it but shit happened
you still stepping right?
I’m over 40 and not the greatest
well shit, not many are. What else?
I want to know love
ok, do you love yourself?
sometimes
and?
There’s work to do I know
I’m here and I’m never leaving
no question mark needed.

but I don’t feel like I’m living.

universe, do you need a pencil sharpener?

Okay, hear me out. What if your favorite sports hero is gay or bi. What exactly would change for you heterosexual manly man?
Not a damn thing!
The world is big and vast and some of your heroes may like their dick and ass big and vast but I digress.
They don’t owe you nothing!
…but how about just taking them as they are? Extremely talented athletes who are doing what they love. Not for you and not for me, but because the feeling of doing it trumps all.
Shit, trump has nothing to do with this.
Back to my point or did I have one? What’s yours?
Food for thought….
