21 THINGS WE DID IN: JAPAN

We traveled to Japan this with Japan Deluxe Tours!!!     It was an experience that we will never forget as it was our first official travel experience with a full-fledged, professional tour operator at the helm.   In the nine days that we were fortunate enough to spend with Japan Deluxe Tours, we covered more locations and were given a much deeper insight into the Japanese culture than we could have ever hoped to have on our own. Here are 21 things we did while we were there IN RECORD TIME!     Please share this video with anyone…

The Universe Reading Its Own Mind – This is my 500 for 12/20/2017

Not sure where I am goin' with this. All I need to know is that it is up to me. Because it is. I say the direction I head. I think it and it is so. Such a radical concept.. giving me a sense of power that I am not sure I can handle.. it makes it terrifying.. to know that this reality is exactly what we make of it. We create the thoughts in our minds that manifest themselves in physical forms…   our creations are bound to the laws that are created in the space between our ears.…

How I Know That I’m Afraid – This is my 500 for 12/10/2017

I am just so afraid. I know that must be the case right now because I am so full of anger… anger over the silliest little things in my life… and I can let them control my emotions when I let them. It is not worth my time to entertain them and it is hurtful to the people that I love and care about that are around me. I am on this journey alone but there is now the need for me to walk it with you. I just don’t know how to get myself on a track where I…

This is my 500 for 12/5/2017

Type type type type flow with the keys.. like fingers rolling along the notes on a piano.. rolling from one melody to the next… searching for a rhythm and finding a beat... feeling the bass flutter with a thought of life.. heart beating in unision.. wondering where the next idea will come from...   I am so hung up on trying to find perfection.   I have to learn to just let go. This place is not for me alone.. this life we have is shared. We are all looking for answers in the same sandbox.. building and smashing dreams..…

This is my 500 for 12/1/2017

Well, here we are again… at last… we meet again… I feel like these quick little writing sessions are like fighting a mini-boss at the end of a level… maybe it has something to do with the music that is pumping through the speakers right now… I could tone it down with a little soft classical music, but the drive and the rattling of my mind would slow me in my writing… I aim for high energy.. aiming for a high energy physiology.. in my writing… in my face-to-face conversation.. understanding that the connections we make are the only things…

TESLA MODEL 3 UPDATES

If you haven’t heard about the Elon Musk’s Model 3 Teslas then…. well, I’ll let you fill in the blank. Could this possibly be this generation’s most anticipated car release? I see no information to indicate otherwise. Families and aspiring tree-huggers will be picking up one of these bad boys as soon as, well, wait, what exactly do we know about the Tesla Model 3 up to this point? Here is what I have come up with so far:   With shares of Telsa’s stock (SYMBOL: TSLA) up over 50% this year, you’d think that it would be difficult to…

THE BEST CAMERA IN THE WORLD: CANON 5D MARK III

The BEST camera in the world (well, ok, the best camera I have ever owned), by far, is the Canon 5D Mark III I've had this gadget for a few years news. I first picked it out because I figured I could use it for creating real estate marketing content in my previous career as a realtor but it quickly turned into much, much more than that. From trips to Joshua Tree to shoot the Milky Way to use for YouTube videos and Family Christmas Cards... it continues to cover a wide range of my content creation needs and I've…

9 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD FREEWRITE … EVERY DAY

Each day that starts off on the right foot begins with a kiss from Mari and a cup of really good, black coffee from our French Press but it is on the mornings that I find time to free write that my day takes on a new meaning.. thoughts, fears, emotions.. all puked out onto the page for my conscious mind to digest... Often times, it's just more of the same anxious dribble bubbling up to the surface that reminds me what it is that is draining me of my energies.  Writing provides an outlet for all of that excess…
