  • New Beginnings

    New Beginnings

    Well, I’ve started to workout seriously and build muscle. I never thought I would be in my 50’s when I would start at this, I thought it was too late to start in my 40’s! But so far so good, except for the occasional headache that throws me off, It’s just so hard to do…

  • My Father, My Music

    My father worked hard all his life and made sure that Mom and the rest of us were well provided for, and I owe everything I have today to him. But early on in my childhood he was very distant and when he was home he was mostly a quiet person. Not to say he…

  • The Sun and Moon

    I took the time to go see the new Superman movie the other day, and although I have some mixed opinions about it overall, it did have a lot of optimistic messaging. I’ve always found it interesting that Superman recharges with our yellow sun, which shows you the power of light and optimism. The thing…

  • The Spice of Life

    I may be in a whole other universe, but to me the spice of life is… freedom. But freedom seems to be a fragile thing lately. Do we surrender our free will for the greater good, or do we hold on to our one and only life here on Earth and do it “Our Way”.…

  • The Path of the Righteous Man

    The scene from Pulp Fiction where Samuel L Jackson is preaching to the young crooks comes to mind sometimes, and sometimes I feel like a wandering pilgrim like he became at the end of the movie. As far back as I can remember I’ve always tried to “Do no harm” to others, like the Doctor’s…

  • Gray Days

    Gray Days

    I slept fairly well last night but still woke up feeling a little funky. I went for my regular bike ride and gym exercise but lacked that spark that really gets you motivated. I’ll just have to chalk it up to being another one of my gray days, you know it’s temporary so you just…

  • Friends and Fellow Artists

    I was able to get out and see a local art event last night and ran into a few friends I’ve made since opening the gallery. I never made many good friends when I was a regular working stiff, I wasn’t super excited about sports and other typical subjects. But when I got back to…

  • Everything all at one time – cool

    Mind, Body and Soul… Here we Go! Or maybe just chill and take it slow and steady. After all, I’m no Superman.

  • Staying positive

    The movie ‘Love & Mercy’ is playing tonight nearby, and it is one of my favorite bio-pics I’ve seen in recent memory. The scene where he starts to recognize his schizophrenia really hits hard. I remember when my mother started suffering from dementia and Alzheimer’s, it was painful to watch. If you can’t trust your…

  • Real Time

    Real Time

    To be a professional is to be able to perform in real time. When you’re up there on the stage, in the spotlight and it’s time to perform, are you up for the task? I’ve had several instances when a panic attack will hit me hard, self consciousness comes in and slows you down, your…
