Thoughts and Reflections at Two and a half Weeks…
I’m two and a half weeks into my hiatus from social media. Keeping myself away from Facebook and the like has not been overly difficult. I’ve ventured out and tried two new apps, Threads and Tumblr. Some may say that those are also considered social media, but I found in my limited exposure that theyContinue reading “Thoughts and Reflections at Two and a half Weeks…”
Today: 2/22/24
Today marks the end of yet another chapter in my life. Twenty-one months of a journey that no one could have foreseen. All that remains in this chapter is one more sentence. And the pen is in hand…. – Me
Hiatus Day Seven – Emotional Health
I have to admit that I struggle with what most would call emotional health. Beginning with my journey of recovery in 2002, I’ve started learning what emotionally healthy is really like and some tools to help achieve positive emotional health. Many of my emotionally-unhealthy thoughts occur when I first wake up. The stampede of thoughtsContinue reading “Hiatus Day Seven – Emotional Health”

I recently listened to a podcast by Marianne Williamson in which she asserts that the UniverseContinue reading “The Universe Responds…”
The Path Less-Chosen…
I recently went to a local park along the river that has plenty of walking trails. They are color-coded and not being sure which one would be best, I picked the “red” trail. Somewhere along the way, and no, I’m not color blind, I took a wrong turn and ended up on a totally differentContinue reading “The Path Less-Chosen…”
Change a thought, move a muscle…
I’ve been given some time to do quite a bit of thinking. I’ve started walking again and that’s helped with my train of thought. I’ve also been reading a lot and listening to audiobooks of what I’ve been reading. And while I can’t readily recall all the wisdom I’ve covered, I can’t but think it’sContinue reading “Change a thought, move a muscle…”
Moving Forward….
Life is meant to be lived…or so I’m told. When there are those unexpected occurences in life, when things go awry,,,,it’s not always easy to know what to do. What you thought about life and the people in it can change with little or no notice. It’s what you do after those unexpected changes thatContinue reading “Moving Forward….”
