Day 21 Realized I didn’t write .. despite thinking about it all day. That’s progress right ? Prince has a lawsuit in progress headed toward settlements despite being dead .. think on that. Settlement relating to a 2007 YouTube video and the concept of fair use .. crazy! What’s the legacy?

Journey of Discovery
Day 19 Spent this day chatting with my oldest son. Organic in nature, a whole day of just talking. About everything …from racism, to college, to filmmaking, and relationships. As a sit and admire his own journey of discovery, I am ignited to be on one of my own. Admiring his season, his grasp of…
No One Else
Day 16 No one else like you. No one else pays attention. No one else believes the things you do. No one else sees what you see. So what? So what, if you have a grand vision but no one else ever gets on board or sees what you see? Do you stop writing the…
I’ve Got This – Day 15
The Lord continues to give me those pockets of sunshine that I prayed for a few days ago. Whenever I start to feel overwhelmed, inadequate, insecure, or afraid (when you think about it, it’s all just rooted in fear anyway), He reminds me in some way that I’ve got this! Like this evening, after our…
The Second Ten

Secret Smurfs
Day 14 There must be a secret place where all my good ideas go to hide when it is time to deliver. All throughout the day, especially the mornings, I feel like I am flowing and have lots of ideas to write about……lots of ideas, intriguing thoughts. Fun stories. Fast forward to night time to…
Perspective – Day 13
What I have to keep in mind is that people will give you advice based on their own personal experiences, their mindsets, and the way they view the world and other people. It’s so easy to get caught up in another person’s opinion about a thing. I have to be very very careful with that…
Addictions
Day 13 A friend is struggling with something addictive. Something that she knows isn’t good for her but takes part in it anyway. Something that could drive her life into total chaos–and in fact, has–but still can’t seem to totally let it go. It seems so obvious and clear that it is not good for…
