you can only be as strong
as you are vulnerable.
so many people have so much faith in me,
but I tell you, some days I can’t help but feel it’s misplaced. The past two years, the past two years, blah blah blah. They’re starting to feel like an excuse. I neglected my body, and I’ve spent the past two years paying the price for my ignorance. Sure, I’ve since corrected it, and right now I’m in better shape than I’ve ever been, but unless I stay on...

So no, words don’t mean what they used to. We spray words like promise and love around like bullets as if we’re trying to kick start some species extinction. All our entertainment revolves around the biological imperative to breed, and the unscrupulous (and hilarious!) lengths we go to just to get a piece. We’re taught that it’s better to pour our energy into getting away with lying than to...

Nathan thinks I’m melting. AKA: Getting mushy.
He is totally right. :)
This episode was brought to you by I’m right, all the time, always. xD
people!
talk to each other! it’s super easy: open your mouth, make the throat-vibrations, expel air. all the dramas, all the misunderstandings, all the lies and half-truths and omissions are tangling you up and tying you down. you can put considerably less effort into just telling the truth by sucking it up and pulling the trigger than you do twisting yourself in knots trying to maintain the...

little by little, this is how we advance.
I have a couple of fun and awesome things in the works, and I’d rather keep them a little closer to my chest than usual until I know which way they’re going to swing. Suffice it to say I’m excited, and determined, and I’ll be doing anything within my power to see that they come to pass. In the meantime, I’ll be easing back into training to kick the last of the plague...
