#Insecurities: A #Haiku

Meditating on things that hamper growth. Insecurities fill that for me. Especially as they’re often unfounded and irrational, to the point of annoyance. Well, that’s how I feel when I can step back and look set them rationally. 

Writing is one way I cope. Putting them down on paper helps me deeply. 

Also, this shows me the power of daily affirmations. Taking the time to deliberately challenge these destructive mental models…actually, proactively challenging them, is important. Stay ahead of the corrosion. 

A Seattle Autumn: A Haiku

As I look skyward

The memories fill my mind

Seattle’s autumns

This autumn night: tonight’s #haiku

Leaves in the darkness
As the trees prepare to sleep
Stars peeking through clouds

Today definitely felt like autumn. Wearing sweaters, finding my gloves and scarves, all signs the fall is here. For me, it’s a happy feeling. What about you?

Devouring Rage

We devour rage

And it seeps into our bones

One tweet at a time 

A meditation on modern culture. Am I off base? What do you think?

First Day of #Autumn, Tonight’s #Haiku

The blooms speak boldly, Boisterous in the sunlight, 
Now but memories

Well, today’s autumn. So I brought iut a photo from one of my walks last week. The weather was much nicer.

I hope your fall is fantastic.
