I am writing to you all from Seattle, WA. Currently looking out at the water, the skyscrapers, and the Space Needle from our Air BnB. It's a blessing to be able to travel and do new things. As I spend some time away from home, I am finding new things to enjoy. Whether it be…

What’s next?
As the page turns from 2020 to 2021, we are all eager to see what comes next. The text on everyone's page will look different, but I wanted to discuss our outlooks on the new year (and really, our individual futures in general). I personally spent some time earlier this week writing down my goals…
Thankful impacts.
In reflecting on the thanksgiving holiday and the year 2020 beginning to wrap up, I have been reminded lately of the many things I am grateful and thankful for in my life. I wanted to take a moment to thank you all, my readers, for being a part of my life's journey. I am thankful…
Answering our questions.
Every day, I find many things in front of me that are new. When seeking knowledge or experience on new things in our lives, we have questions. I have noticed something about myself that has changed over time when it comes to "questions" - I used to be afraid to ask questions, because I feared…
Perspective.
I like to make lists. I keep my lists on my "Notes" app on my phone and on my sticky notes I carry. These lists and notes help me in many ways: Reminders for daily tasksLaying out steps to help me reach a goalGiving me little thoughts on things as I maneuver through lifeAnd more.…

The weather recently in Kansas City has been beautiful. As I go from place to place, whether it be work, my girlfriend's place, my home, the golf course, my friend's house, etc., I have made it a note to appreciate the weather - spend time outside, go for walks, roll the windows down on the…
Timelines.
When at work a few weeks ago, a man had just finished his round of golf and came to the table I was sitting at. I asked him how his day went, in which he replied "Not good - another bad round of golf. Just can't seem to play well lately, but that's how golf…
How to clear your mind.
What do you do when your mind is spinning its wheels? I catch myself overthinking, over-analyzing, and being stressed out often. It's easy for our mind to put itself in a place that is beyond what's going on. Whether it's because we feel things should be different, because we want things to be different, or…
Getting lost, but in the right ways.
The busyness of life sometimes brings us to get lost in everyday tasks. In the last two weeks, I have been busy. I am a little sad I didn't make time to blog, but it happens. It would be different if it was a really tough, grind-through two weeks but it hasn't - it's been…
Patience in all things.
As humans, we are always wanting our lives to be aligned exactly how we see fit. Every day, we have to wait for something to come - usually, it's just for a shift at work, the alarm to wake us, the car ride home, for the oven to finish cooking our dinner, etc. When…
