I do not trust my instincts
Do you trust your instincts? “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?” Jer 17:9 KJV In a culture that fights between logic and rationality on the one hand and following our hearts and doing what we love on the other, I tend to lean into the former. This…

The Choice
450 am CT. I just woke up from a dream where I was arguing with my wife. It was the argument that I’ve had in a thousand forms with a hundred people. I argued that the choice between good and evil was more important than the choice to be good. She (and so many others)…

Capable
What’s the first impression you want to give people? I have trouble with imposter syndrome. I very often feel that I am not good enough to be where I am doing what I am doing. So I like to get reinforcement that I am enough and that I do enough. When people see me as…

Sleeping All Morning

Choir
What was your favorite subject in school? Without a doubt, choir was my favorite subject in school. I was in two choir classes in my senior year of highschool and participated in an extracurricular choir after regular classes. I enjoyed singing in choir, singing and acting in musicals and plays, and singing solos for competitions.…

Resignation
I handed in my resignation letter to Walgreens this afternoon. I am going to stay until Christmas so I’m not leaving while staff is short. But after that I need to decompress, take stock of my life, and decide what really needs to be done next. I will miss a lot of coworkers but I’ve…

My Parents
Hi Mom. My parents were pretty liberal with me when I was growing up. As a general rule they would let me make my own bad decisions and live with the consequences of them. There was a Mormon family that lived next door to us for a while. I wasn’t allowed to play with their…
