I am physically aching today, I moved a pile of logs yesterday on my property and my body is yelling at me!

This is a not so subtle reminder that I am not a young man anymore. 😐

I am definitely warming up to the idea of #sortition as a form of government. Just pluck people at random from the population and force them to run the government. Maybe we'll get some new ideas for a change, and elections(selections) would be cheap and quick.

Beautiful frosty morning today! 😊 The grass was sparkling in the sunlight.

There is beauty everywhere if you look for it.

Good morning everyone! There is beauty in this world. It was here before us, and it will outlast us. Appreciate it whenever you can! 😌

“Does the emerald lose its beauty for lack of admiration? Does gold, or ivory, or purple? A lyre or a dagger, a rosebud or a sapling?”

Yikes! I have a tree removal guy here taking down an enormous Ash tree, and his bucket truck is broken so he's climbing this 80ft tall tree and taking it down in stages. It's terrifying to watch but I can't look away! 😯😳

Good morning friends! 😊

May your day be filled with kindness, and mindfulness guide you in all you do today!

Good morning everyone! Things get hectic this time of year. So I try to remember the things that matter...

"There is but one thing of real value - to cultivate truth and justice, and to live without anger in the midst of lying and unjust men."
~ Marcus Aurelius

Take care my friends! 😊

Good morning everyone! 😊

I got two pallets of fiber fuel stacked in my garage this morning by myself and I didn't drop dead of a heart attack! 👍

I'll call that a win. I haven't even had my first cup of coffee yet. 😀
