Life has been putting me through some "advanced classes" lately around commitment, love, and loss.

The hard-earned integrity I feel in my deepest being has made me unflappable.

RIP Janus.

Well done, dear friend.
You made the weight of your life matter.
You spread boundless kindness and love.
You showed courage and heart.
You kept open to learning and growth.
You shared wisdom and humility.
You danced and laughed with all your being.

My dear friend and cohost of ‪the Stay Sparked Podcast‬ , Janus, is dying.
I was told that he chose to shift his medical care to "Comfort Measure Only" right before my live broadcast yesterday.

It truly did lift a weight to be able to share the news and my grief.

@jasonkpargin.bsky.social's latest email is a helpful criticism/look at Liberal Pessimism.

It is a long read, so if you are rushed, skim the analysis of Bo Burnam and skip to #5.

p.s. I LOVED Jason K Pargin's latest book.

It is raining in San Diego!
I love the rain... but I can't remember being this happy for water from the sky.

New episode of STAY SPARKED is about "Cultivating Joy."

More than ever, it is important to cultivate JOY.
Betsy & I make the case that Joy with action is much better for the world than anger without action.

This is not what I had pictured in my mind when I imagined a "badass warrior."

It is now.

Thank you, @mariannbuddeedgar.bsky.social for showing us the difference between "Christ-like" and "Christian"

My beloved just took me to see Ani Defranco.
A super important artist for both of us.
She sang and told stories about the evolution of consciousness and being human.
What a badass.
