Nothing more needed.

…By any chance you still glance in on these…

Please let me know when you are in danger. In the hospital. In pain. Or anything else where you are in need.

Prayer is powerful. I want to be able to pray for you when you are in need. I don’t care what, or why. I don’t even need to know the circumstances.

Just send me a “🙏” emoji if you want. Specifics aren’t even needed.

It’s important to me. Don’t know why. Don’t care why. Sometimes I wish it wasn’t, but it is.

I told you you would always be sacred to me because it was True; not because I was in love with you.

If you want to hate me, hate me. I still want to pray for you when you are in need.🙏

Yes… this includes any of your loved ones.

Thanks. Be well, sweetie.

Always loved this one. Good fun. Great sound. Great decade for not needing much meaning…

Missing her all day. Really intensely. No clue why.

Can’t sleep, but what else is new…

Maybe because it’s finally below 60 degrees.

Coming up on two years now, but it’s not lime yet. Prayed for her. Not sure what else to do. She’ll always be sacred.

A new possibility is on the horizon, but not sure what to make of it. The closeness of the past was so… intimate. Built over years of feeling someone else in your very soul, even when she was thousands of miles away.

Nothing will be like that again… which given that it didn’t work out… is for the best. Still…

It will pass. Been out on dates here and there and didn’t have much trouble.

No idea. Hope she’s well.

Have some work to do. Might as well make the time useful. Sleeping in shifts. Wonder where you got that idea. 😂

Bookkeeping again. PT gig. Good supplement to the bookstore.

Once everything’s squared away, read some more Isaiah. Well, start over. Then get some sleep on.

Cat sitting Sam again. Folks getting their house ready for realtor. Hate them having to move. It is what it is though.

This life is just the crib, though. In ten thousand years, you won’t remember much of this place. Only the good times, if even that.

Tomorrow’s another day. Make it a good one.

And as always, Thanks for the cats.🕊️🙏🐈

A bit scary though… 🤔

Wow. Okay. Nevermind. Book of Isaiah it is.

Not often you ask for clarification and get it that fast. Never in that way before either.

Is this about you here? Don’t get weirded out – not everything is. Actually most things aren’t. It’s about people- of which you’re one, thus, lessons everyone needs. You’ll figure out why later.

Isaiah seems similar to Revelation, but for the Old Testament. And that part happened. Maybe it’s so you’ll get more down the road when it is time to read other books.

Eh. Whatever. There’s a reason.

So you get to keep watching the news.

Yay.

😂

Hopefully not prophetic. News is getting really scary. Might take a week off. Next book He’s on one about is the scary one. Used to be more interesting than scary; now there’s all kinds of stuff going on from AI to bioweapons to EMP’s to good old-fashioned terrorism, thanks to a wide-open border.

It’s probably best if you read it to stay off the news. Don’t make it try to fit into a box. And fold your opinions in; you’re seeing what’s happening, and it’s like a really slow train wreck. People in the West… none of us have a clue how bad things actually were just in the Great Depression. Hopefully it won’t be anywhere near that bad.

No matter what though… it could always be worse. 🤔

Given all the distractions these days, it’s difficult. It’s OK to admit that you just suck at online learning. You’ve always been a learn by doing person. It’s all right. Maybe there’s a course you can take to learn how to learn online online.

Considering there are literally three sets of courses you need to focus on for three different streams, having priorities is necessary. There’s a lot of store learning you need to do to see if you can really hone what you already have going as a baseline. After being out of action for three weeks, sales are terrible and you’re just now getting them back up. Sure it’s tough to buy inventory when there isn’t much money though. Being a lot more discerning with what you get and working on the various tools to improve store standing could help.

Entrepreneur bro has his sights set on getting into govt contracts. Will be a little while before that’s up and running, but getting in now could crush it going forward. You just need to focus on what you’re good at. The other learning is still out there waiting for you to pick back up, and you need to… but holy crap somethings gotta get on the back burner.😂

Sleeping is terrible lately. Naturally that’s affecting everything, but at the very least, your little bout in the hospital has you trying to eat healthier. Rediscovered how amazing brown rice was.

The best way to be driven – or rediscover being driven – is to just…drive.

Take charge somewhere where you know you just…can. Just get a win. Level up again.

From an old VHS tape, this popped into your feed. Reminds you of when you were a kid and audiotaped it off the TV to listen to on the Walkman when you ran. Worked then. Will work now. 😂

Started jogging again. The gym was on the way home from the office, really convenient. It’s definitely worth the short trip, but it’s tough to justify going out when you don’t need to go out for something else. Booking each day with a goal of 50 daily will fix that when you can afford to, but for now, heck, just start running again. You have a gray beard. It’s obvious you aren’t young anymore so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about. And time isn’t an issue because, we’ll, you’re really not gonna be jogging at once too long.😂

It was really frustrating; heavy power walk on a treadmill, incline set at 10, you can go for an hour, but can only jog for a few minutes? Same muscles! With good stamina! WTH? Whatever. If you jog at home, it will save time. And as you can jog longer, you’ll feel better. And hopefully that will be that win you need like the one you got at Table Rock a few years ago.

All of the sudden, that little garage bookstore looks like a surprisingly good investment.😂

Fortunately, for you, you’re statistically past the halfway point. And literally the only benefit on earth to not having kids is not having to worry about them being in the world you’ll be leaving behind.

Focusing on what matters is key. All the studying you’ve been doing and you keep putting it off. And as sure as you keep putting it off, He keeps nudging you.

Okay. Tonight’s the night.

Feeling like the next one needs to be Revelation. But if you’re going to do that… turn the news off for a week while you read it.😂

Alright, fine. Let’s hear what Paul has to say that you’ve been avoiding.
