#MentalHealthFlashCards
…like empowerment, self-awareness, deciding that nothing is allowed to. Move me in a way I wish not be moved, but….
Documenting the immediate. And studying it. This meditation, one of presence framed. In what? Gratitude, decided PEACE, distance from the horror that was that other life…. Calm, not worrying about what doesn’t deserve worry and now I’m seeing that NOTHING does. All I can control, like I say to students – Attitude, Activity. That’s it….

For tree Sense optional But keep going Stand your ground You look strong Juggler, tricks, cycle Is it sweet, dessert putrid They won’t get it, shame I’ll never be maimed Fantasy books, they want you to look And empathize, no eyes just ear hustled What a weird hustle, but there’s an audience Contrived boldness is…
Article finished. Alone in the house, Nurse off with her Nurse friends for a girls overnight.
Happy for her in so many ways, and our communication, so real and loving and unqualified.. hard for me to believe, given where I’m from. The past. That place. But why give it any address? I’m not. That’s what I’ve decided. Mental Health is built, and fought for. In that, PEACE. Caring for SELF, and……

Vacaville, CA. Peet’s Coffee First of the month. The energy at work reflects it… excitement and eagerness, supporting others. That BOLDNESS, and Adaptability, among other valued Core Values. Designing a new playbook. Or, not a new one, but one from the other MANY documents I’ve composed since being back home.. Distracted by the energy of…

Working on the Nurse’s book all morning. 12 minutes left on a productivity timer I set for myself, forcing production and singular project focus.
In this new year, FOCUS. Consolidation… running and writing, HEALTHY ways for this writer. So grateful, I don’t know what to say… just seeing more, after the 29th, seriously. Not complicating, not taking energy away and placing it where it needn’t be. The Nurse and her heart, how kind she is, always humbling me…….

Silly in my thoughts, careless and it feels amazing, freeing, like I’m reborn or something. Seriously. ….. Consolidating. Simplifying and singularizing. Just me, this blog, the books, not too many “businesses”, I promised myself walking up the stairs to the office just as I turned on the light. Waiting for student to log on… PEACE,…
Taking a minute in the break room. Not alone, and that’s fine.
I want to hear other conversations…. People talking, their stories. Two people at my writing booth, talking about cooking, and then running, then waking up super early and running and working out. FUCK, I say to myself. I need to get up at get it out of the way. Chris last night telling me that’s…
