One day away from day 10, nice! In a way I'd say it feels a bit therapeutic even, writing these thousand words daily, I really think more people ought to try it, at least once in a while if daily's too much. To be honest I think daily might even be too much for me, … Continue reading DAY 9 (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)
Day 6, I hope everyone who reads this is having an amazing day! Today is a sober day for me. I've been trying to cut down on weed for quite a while now, trying different methods, but haven't had much success. I'm not blaming cannabis itself in any way, the issue is personal. I've been … Continue reading DAY 6: Cutting down on weed after more than a decade (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)
Day 5 of writing a thousand words from my mind. I'm glad I'm sticking with this goal so far, it's only been five days but I'm feeling really motivated to keep this going this time. The second time I attempted to do this daily I got up to Day 81, then when I failed it … Continue reading DAY 5: Eternal Words (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)
There's an entire universe within us. We are connected to mysterious forces which we can't perceive or understand, but which control the way we behave, the way we live our lives.

Sometimes we wish to do something … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 79: Placing Motivation in the Right Direction.
Yesterday I posted about the random chest pain I started having last night, and also about the mental struggle that followed: In the face of pain and uncertainty, of fear of the unknown, I was hit by a severe lack of motivation to complete my daily goals. I also wrote about how I eventually found … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 78: Getting Checked.
Jack Kornfield said that "the trouble is you think you have time.” We all think we have enough time. We know that there are important things which have never been said up to this point, things which probably should have been done a long time ago. We know that we have to set things straight … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 74: “The Trouble Is You Think You Have Time.”
70 days into this writing goal, every day writing a thousand words and posting them on here.

Today was another day. I'm tired, but I have enough energy to learn, to read, to write. I'm faded, I ate some pizza so I feel a bit heavy, but I'm comfortable. Today I was thinking back on my fam, the ways in which they may have changed while I've been gone away, the way … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 53: From Tired to Inspired.
