Pack Rat
I’m not a hoarder, but I am a pack rat. I have many old things, but for the daily prompt, the key words are use daily. I suppose if I don’t use the stuff, what’s the point of keeping it? Sentimental! I have a play my mother wrote when she was in college, 75 years… Continue reading

Reflections
It’s a good list, some of my best moments, the first time I kissed my wife, out wedding day, the first image I saw of my child, and both days my kids were born. When I was a kid, I won trophies for my customs in some local parades. When I was in my thirties… Continue reading

Retro
Since I add to my blog in the mornings, I don’t have a list for notable things that happened today, not yet; and I don’t plan on changing my writing regimen to fit a daily prompt. So … what happened yesterday? Since I am a partial hermit … not much. It’s hard to write about… Continue reading

Truth
Rudy Giuliani says “truth is not truth,” but as a writer I always seek the truth in any story. I am passionate about honesty. If we are honest with each other, we know where we stand. We often don’t know where politicians truly stand because they are reluctant to be honest about what they really… Continue reading

Undecided
Each season has appeal and none of them stands out as the best. I am glad I live in a place with changing seasons. I don’t know what I would do with the land of perpetual sunshine. I like Spring because everything turns green, flowers and birdsong. I like the Summer because I can fish… Continue reading

Silly Question
By definition, luxuries are things I can live without. “Living without” means I do not require those things to survive. I don’t need luxuries. Money is not a luxury. A ton of money is. Television is a luxury, and I would be happy if someone took my TV away. Once I was a skier. I… Continue reading

Attitude
My journey has been a process of lightening up, building my self-esteem and developing the confidence to take risks to achieve my goals. The result has been a good life. In my blog I have mentioned that humor is my super power. My writing is strongest, most concise, most focused and firmly directed when I… Continue reading

Too Late
The only name worth having is my true name. If my given name is not my true name, then I would change it. I have been with Robert so long, it seems the right fit. It feels like my true name, but it’s probably too late to think otherwise. If I went on a vision… Continue reading

Calories
I have not had a chocolate bar better than the Hershey’s milk chocolate bar (free plug…) The chocolate flavor is smooth, not too bitter. It’s sweet but not overpowering. It has to be the thin bar. The thick bars are too much punch at once. It would be a dream bar if eating it gave… Continue reading

Cats In Hats
I was always bedazzled by the Cat in the Hat, by Dr. Seuss. I loved the idea of a cat in the Cat’s hat, and another cat in that second cat’s hat, and so on. The idea of recursion opened my mind to seeing things from different points of view. It gave life to my… Continue reading
