I adore this shot
The way light’s splaying outwards
Cutting through the dark

Watch “Watch This Before You Make Another Decision” on YouTube
Ah, good ol’ Gary V! I deeply appreciate his raw “get the fuck off your ass and get to work” videos. See, I dive deep into over-thinking. Churnimg through “what-ifs” is reflexive. And second guessing my choices? I’m a master at that, too. And it drives me nuts. I KNOW it’s a waste. I KNOW you can’t know how any choice would play out differently. Yet my brain churns through this nonsense. These videos are a good reminder to be vigilant against that and stop that waste of energy, that degradation of confidence. Forward! Move forward. Move, and forward. Don’t look back.
Today’s Quote of the Day: Gary Snyder
I’ve long adored Snyder’s work and words. This one speaks to be strongly today. I hope it motivates you, gives you energy and helps you pursue your dreams.
First Day of #Autumn, Tonight’s #Haiku
Well, today’s autumn. So I brought iut a photo from one of my walks last week. The weather was much nicer.
I hope your fall is fantastic.
Another Farmers Market #Haiku
The Farmer’s Market
These awesome autumn delights
Many things called me
A Friday Night Haiku
Friends are beautiful
Easy as riding a bike
Graceful connection
I hopped into Canva looking for inspiration, and found this template. Bicycles delight me, and friends are wondrous. The haiku felt pretty natural with all those pieces coming together.
A Quick Piece Of Blogging Advice
One of the blogs I follow will, often, post a flurry of posts in one burst. So my email becomes laden with a string of 8, 9, 10 posts.
I want you all to be aware of a feature within all blogging platforms I’m familiar with: “Scheduling Posts”.
Below is a screen capture of the current layout for WordPress.
This helps in a couple ways.
- You don’t flood your readers with content.
- Regular postings are better for you, SEO-wise. Scheduling 10 posts to occur over 10 days is better for your site in the eyes of Google.
So, one fast bit of blogging advice. Cheers!
Flowers in the Night
Flowers in the night
Do they notice the street light?
A breeze from the west
Another meditation from an evening walk. These walks clear my mind of the day’s mania. Thus they’re very welcome to me.
Oh, the VW Bus!
My love for these vans
A classic stylization
Grand branding ethos
I do adore the classic, type 2 VW bus. These speak to my heart in ways I’ve really not fully mapped out. But they are quite fun, even if they’re not the most practical.
A #Haiku about #traffic
The night is waning
Light slowly filters through clouds
Steel now starts flowing
Happy Thursday everyone! Or, shall I say, Friday-eve.
Thinking about flinging myself into the jaws of grinding steel and plastic that’s Seattle during rush hour.
