  • Holding My Intestines In…

    The more days that pass after finding my hernia, the more annoying it becomes. I’m trying to be smart. I do not want to push myself and cause an emergency or a greater issue. I’m not fucking with my life. I’ll cut splinters out with a knife. I’ll climb up on ladders higher than I…

  • A Fucking Hernia, Really?

    Two nights ago, I was standing there pissing. I was a little drunk. I went to push the piss out and noticed a bulge protrude from my groin. What the fuck was that? I did it again, and there it was again! I thought it was either an alien trying to burst through my groin…

  • Am I the Only One That Cares?

    I swear that I’m the only one that gives a shit sometimes. The amount of fucking laziness that people display is infuriating! It makes it even more so when I bust my ass to get shit done. Think this is an exaggeration? Let’s see… I own and operate a business and have a side business.…

  • Motivation?

    What motivates someone to do anything? It could be money, fame, peace, etc. Motivation can be good or evil. I would argue that motivation is a self-service thought/feeling. An obvious question is why are we motivated to do anything? That can be discussed, but I think we are motivated to do things that will eventually…

  • Perspectives

    I probably have a dozen posts about perspectives. Here’s another one; deal with it! We have all heard the phrase, “it’s a matter of perspective.” We, however, rarely give it the thought it deserves. Even more rarely, someone comes along that forces us to challenge our perspectives. It could be a new friend, a stranger,…

  • Responsibilities + Laziness

    In today’s world, no one wants to take responsibility for anything. Kids do not want to take responsibility for doing their own work. Presidents and leaders do not want to take responsibility for the aftermath of their decisions. What if the outcome is good? Sure, they’ll take the glory in those instances; however, during the…

  • Surrounded, but Alone

    How can someone be surrounded by family and friends, yet feel so alone? It might happen more often than you think. I have had person experiences with this throughout my life, but I also know people suffering through the same thing. In my experience, it stems from people not being on the same page in…

  • Selfless vs Selfish

    One thing I have learned recently is that if you are the only one being selfless, everyone else is selfish. What do I mean by that? In order to answer that, we have to understand the difference between selfless and selfish. Selfless people give everything they have without regard to repayment or receiving anything back.…

  • Face the Music

    Music can be a very emotional tool. If you ever listened to vocal-only tracks of famous songs, you’ll quickly realize the person either cannot sing or the song has no substance. The instruments are just as important (if not more) than the vocals. The soundtracks to movies often help trigger fear, sadness, empathy, excitement, and…

  • Resurrection

    The title of my next book was going to be The Event: The Amanai Resurrection. I wrote about a quarter of the book; however, it just seemed to cliché how the story was turning out. I haven’t been able to get past that feeling, and I have not written any more of it. I do…
