final statement to every therapist that thought radical acceptance was the last hurdle, the last bridge to cross, the end all with a big bow and a free pass to happiness attached: Okay, i radically accept that I am the result of all my traumas and that cured of PTSD is not a thing. Hope you have...

And thats another moving target! I think “In memory of Elizabeth Reed” by the Allman Brothers has maybe the greatest ability to just stop me and make me listen, thise guys just sounded like they enjoyed what they were doing and you can envision a shared grin on the back porch on a sunday...

oh man, a fav beatles is tough. one goes into another over and over for the past fifty years. The first record i bought as a kid was a plastic ono band 45 of “imagine”. they were already broken up. Over the next couple of years i dove into album after album and even now i discover stuff i love...

that goldstar i rode left a mark on me, yep. real bike that smelled like hot oil and was a bitch to start if you knew not of top dead center. You learned that if you took your clutch fingers off the lever and you could count the strokes one at a time you were about to……yeah, left a mark...

I think I get it. We are born with an instinct for survival and i think it is more than just a warmth and nutrition thing. Infants want to be interacted with, children want support and nurturing and adults want respect and fair treatment. The desire to be part of the unit and keep our spot by...

i cant imagine having the disdain for my childrens feelings my parents showed for my feelings. It just isnt there and i cant see how they got there, except it was part of their religion and they were told to hold me in contempt. I guess we were all lucky no one told them they should fly planes...

don't forget that young man. Hold onto the youth you got, that's my advice from the other side of 62 for ya. Thanks for all brother, your work here is appreciated

its a dangerous world. Random violence on the news today, people in the wrong place at the wrong time. how do you avoid it when it is anywhere, anytime? I remember being concerned about the new drug testing policy being put in place in the late eighties where i work (yep. since’87) I stood and...

ask a foreigner: Northern hemisphere folks grow up learning about the northern lights, do people south if the equator learn about the southern lights or you call it something else? Teaching daughter calls it the aurora borealis, correct north/south?

gotcha. only one locally and it has had a line constantly since open. Never wanted to spend an hour in line for fast food.

@Rose White bible verses on the bottom of cups? Where is that?

big orchid fan. They can seem so alien to this world. But real life that i see all the time locally? A weed. Queen Annes lace. It was my moms favorite and it grows wherever you let it. Im glad my grandmother told me she liked it favorite game played with a standard deck of cards

3 digit ranked Wordle player. Any wordlers on here?

mrs. Dosky, third grade. When I handed in all of my spelling assignments for the whole year just a week or two in she was challenged instead of put off by it. I know now that i was lucky not to be written off as “low need” as so many kids are today. When teachers are stretched so thin that high...

fettucini noodles in a reduced cream sauce with cheeses and seafood. Alfredo? I guess, but better. All about the sauce. when talking with children, what is your favorite age group to interact with?

saw a movie with good music from way back when i was pre childhood trauma, made me remember things from the better sliver of my life. Good memories in a head usually too full of bad thoughts for the space needed for them is a priceless thing

lighter! wet matches suck, wet lighters dont. One night no moon and no heat was enough, lighters live in tool kits, under front seats, in a couple of pockets in the back packs and at the foot of the sleeping bag. Somewhere, always, a lighter. white gas or propane lanterns/stoves?

two pull low. Tupelo Mississippi

way late reply, maybe too late? a religion was the cause of my parents disgust with me, and it endured even after i raised successful kids and had a long successful career. I was never arrested for anything, paid my bills, volunteered with habitat for humanity and as a first responder but they...

I found the classic barking dogs doing Jingle Bells on spotify, much to the horror of younger co workers. Digging the guitar solo, the high level of production. Christmas, dogs, disgruntled members of a non appreciative generation, all good. Merry Christmas!

To be or not to be? slings and arrows please. Outrageous fortune. rockin pneumonia or the boogie woogie flu?
