Greetings. Here it is, May 8th and it feels
good to be back. I’ve taken the last few months off by virtue of life getting
the best of me and while unplanned, it certainly wasn’t uneventful. Thanks to
the great state of Washington and its voters that favor marriage equality, on
January 27th I was able to legally marry my partner. He and I have
been together for over 12 years and being able to get married was an experience
that we both grew up expecting to never have. Now that we’ve gotten to go
through it however we see why so many people do it. It was an experience that
has propelled our relationship forward in so many beautiful ways. It was well
worth every bit of the planning, time, effort and money that went into it. The
beautiful (and sunny) Hawaiian honeymoon that we had afterwards was icing on an
amazing cake for us.
In all of that, entropy took over and I found myself
choosing to sleep in rather than getting up at 5:30 to write. I allowed myself
to just be lazy and take some time off from writing to recharge my batteries.
Over the last couple of months I’ve seen where my procrastination and laziness
have been showing up way too much however and so now I have to begin the
process of pushing through that and getting things moving in my life again. When
I write things like this that I share with others, it becomes motivation for me
because I feel that I have to stick to my word and the commitments I make.
It is my desire to continue sharing the information
which I have been taught and learned through experience with you in the hopes
that something I say can benefit others in some way. If any reader has any
question on anything I’ve shared in the past or that I will share, please feel
free to email me and I’ll try to clarify. Your question might be the key to me
pulling out information which I might have otherwise missed or explaining
something in a way that helps someone understand it better. I always welcome
your questions, comments and feedback.
As I’ve shared before in this blog, it takes us 22 days
to form a new habit. My habit for the last few months has been to be lazy and
so there may be struggles ahead as I try to re-engage the blogging process but
please stay with me as I go through it. Every experience has the ability to
teach us something about ourselves or life and that’s where I draw my
inspiration for the information I share. What I’ll ask you in return is that if
you benefit from these teachings, please “like” or “share” my postings on Facebook so
that your friends will see them and hopefully that will help to grow my
readership which will further motivate me to get out of bed and do the writing
that brings me so much joy and fulfillment. It’s a beautiful feedback loop
where everyone wins.
Thank you for the support and encouragement that you’ve
shown me along the way on this journey. Your responses have meant a great deal
to me and let me know that others are finding value in the information I share.
That has been a big blessing in my life and I thank you for that.
May you always be guided to your highest and greatest
good in all that you do.
Great to have you back Michael!!
