How the Daylight Saving Time Debate Is a Case Study in Negotiation
Listen to this week’s edition of the newsletter here! 😊 As many of you may already be aware, a bill making Daylight Saving Time (DST) permanent by November 2023 has already made its way through the Senate. The decision has been met with mixed emotions. Some argue that permanent standard time is the better option and some are simply happy to no longer have to change the clocks twice a year.

Feeling Freedom
As a child, I thought freedom meant the right to do whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. I couldn’t wait until I turned eighteen. That was the age of autonomy when I could legally say, “You’re not the boss of me!”

Staying in the Closet. Top Story - March 2022.
Stuff is stuff. Every time I walk through a thrift store I am reminded of how quickly things go from must-haves to must-nots. This is especially true of clothes.

My friend, Matt.
My friend Matt is quite a magnificent human, but from his humble demeanor, you’d never know it. He gives off the whole “Tom from MySpace” kind of vibe, but he’s just my friend, Matt, from my favorite page online. As creator of the I’m not a writer Facebook page, Matt shares poetic pieces from artists all over the world to a growing audience that is nearing 200k followers. With every like and share on each post, people from all different walks of life relate to one another with art. By creating this virtual community, Matt has forged many connections among strangers and built a tight nit virtual camp of creative individuals. He is not a writer, but when he writes, he shares pages from his notebook on his personal page, Bourbon Writes.

People Who Are Unrelatable But Might Be Good enough to justify Our Time
Announcements The universe has an approach to sending us inconspicuous messages. One just requirement to tune in. I observe the messages very uncovering. I just called it the universe, however some of the time I say it is my body that I pay attention to.

Just Keep Spinning
It starts off as a wave of euphoria. It consumes you, making you want to stay in this feeling for as long as you can. You don't want it to stop. You wish it would never stop, but it does. And when it does, it doesn't just stop.

Starting Over.
Just to be clear, I am not moving. Starting over, however, IS up in my world. I am no stranger to starting over, having done it multiple times in my life.
