Body is Wrecked, Mind is Tired, Spirit is Challenged, And Feeling Inspired by My Boys Today I awoke unrested, irritable, and feeling disconnected from God. This continued as I was trying to get my boys ready for school as nothing seemed to be going right. I was unfocused, short in my communication with my boys and not at my best today. With all this going on it was very difficult to stay in tune with spirit because of all the interference. Today’s experience helped me have more compassi...

Things are Continuing to Get Weird So for the past few months I’ve been working on cleaning up my relationship with God and Jesus. In doing this I’ve decided to base my life on what the word of God says through what the Bible says. Already having the King James Version, I’d been praying about what version to get next. As there are a few to pick from like ESV and NIV. So today I was impressed upon to read the daily devotional by my stream today. As I was finishing up I asked God what He’...

Things are Getting Funny So today as I was getting ready for my training I had a couple of choices. I could go for a sit in my cold tub first, then read my morning devotional or read first, chill second. So of course I prayed about it. And the answer I got back was, “join me by the river”. Which I thought was funny because I only have a stream by my house. But then it came again, “join me by the river”. So I took my devotional book and sat by my stream and started reading. I was a...

Talked With a Lawyer Without Being in Trouble I finished up day 2 of a three day training today. This morning I got to the training early to get some extra practice in. Who I ended up getting partnered with was a lawyer that has a really good sense of justice. As we got talking he was interested in talking with me more about what I do and how we could potentially help lawyers unearth the truth in court proceedings. I let him know that a good friend of mine is a judge and they would like...

BIG HIM little me I’d been wrestling with how to incorporate God into all I do. From business to family life. Social life to my life as a trainer and instructor. And most recently is hiw in my website can I reflect a BIG GOD and a little me. This means letting go of the LS logo as the front runner for the icon, and instead the image of the boy with the superhero behind him. This speaks to the ultimate superpower in having God backing you up. It also speaks to the Godlike attributes ...

My Fun Neighbors and Their Trick Coins So for about the last three weeks there have been coins from all over the country showing up on the trail by my house. This all started when I noticed a London Subway token on a rock. Then a couple days later it was a coin from Belize. Then a coin of Mexico. Canada. And on and on. One of my boys favorite things to do is see what coin is there now. What’s funny is that two days ago when I was walking my boys to school it was quite cold out. ...

From Almost Getting Shot in Front of My Youngest, to Taking a Shot at Talking About God, Jesus and Country Locally there is a piece of land that had been overrun by drug addicts, homeless, and had been used as a party place for years. Recently it has been cleaned up and the people that weren’t respecting the land have been removed. What has helped with this is having someone that lives in a camper being stationed on property over night. About a week ago I’d noticed there was a pile of pal...

The Spark of Friendship That Keeps Giving So today as I was about to step out and do my weighted walk, I noticed none other than my new friend Jon Floyddup to park and get started with his work for the day. So I walked up unnoticed as he was on his phone and gently tapped his window. Seemingly surprised once he recognized it was me. He probably rolled down his window and we chatted for a little bit. I’ll let him know that because of his direction I was able to pick up a good amount of firew...

From Butt Removal to Firewood 🪵 So today as I was about to start my day in prayer I noticed a couple of construction cars parked in front of my house. Last week when another construction car had parked in front of my house there were a lot of cigarette butts left in my yard. Now I have absolutely zero issue with construction workers parking where they need to in order to get their job done. But butts are a no-go for me as I have two young active boys that I don’t want around cigarettes a...

Family Fun at Family Fun Center Since I was in need of rest in my birthday, my wife and boys surprised me with a trip to Family Fun Center in Tukwila. This is one of my favorite places locally to go with our family. It has a little bit of everything, from video games to air hockey, bumper cars, go carts, laser tag, and mini-golf just to name a few possibilities. This visit we decided on playing mini golf as it was a rare winter day of clear sunny skies and a temperature that rose from 31 ...

From one Light to Another Part of my journey and finding out how I’m experienced by others is by asking them how they experience me. Today because we had the time to my boys and I walked to school a different direction than we normally do. This lead us to entering the school grounds on the opposite side that we normally do which is where they have crossing guards to keep the kids safe in the top of the streets. One of those crossing yards has always been Joyful, kind, thoughtful, and very v...

Business Challenges, Business Insights So I’m running into a bit of a challenge in that the work that I do and how I perceive I present it isn’t how it’s being received. Now this is not at all a problem in regards to fulfilling my client agreements as my clients are always getting above and beyond what they expect to receive from our time together. It is however a bit of a challenge in how I represent what I do on either LinkedIn or living–super.com. In other words, I’m fine-tuning how I...

A Birthday Well Spent So today a group of business owners and I gathered to support each other in our business building efforts. Part of supporting each other is helping to overcome the internal challenges keeping each of us from moving forward. There was one man that has an amazing amount of potential that was in need of some help in this regard. So with all that I had in me today, and after not having slept well in the last couple of nights, myself and another man were there to help him...

Unbelievable but True Blessings of God: OK, so remember when I was saying on Monday that the first time in over seven years, the pharmacy had my medication? It gets even more wild than that. Initially, I thought that the prescription was only supposed to cost $60 and that’s what I told my wife thinking that with our new insurance even the $201 with the discounts they were able to find seemed very high. After many calls to, and from my Pharmacy and to my doctors office, I finally made my way...

A Day That Started in Stress, and Anxiety: I’m out here on my walk to go pick up my youngest from preschool, pulled out Standard Notes feeling like there was something to write, but wasn’t quite sure what. And then I get a call back from my endocrinologists nurse saying that a prescription was going to be available for me. Now for most things and for most people, this is no big deal because most medication is something they have in stock. Mine is a little bit more specialty. It’s a speci...

A Day Full of Blessings and Miracles cont’d: To add onto what I had posted on Friday, there was so much awesomeness that happened in one meeting with a friend. There was kindness shown to me by the barista at the Starbucks that had given me a free drink from my friend The opportunity for me to spread joy by simply opening the door for people as they approached the Starbucks. To trust in my friend in having me connect with her sister that had been going through a hard time feeling in knowing ...

A Day Full of Blessings and Miracles: Today I got to meet up with a good friend that wanted to help me with my Living-Super.com website’s feel. She’s an amazing person that is joyful, loving, and curious. As I was waiting for her to arrive at the Starbucks, I was in the phone with another awesome friend. I’d ordered my drink and thanked the young man helping me out. Since I was sitting by one of the entrances, at every chance I’d seen someone walking towards the door to enter, I opened ...

The Contrast to The Dark I had the privilege to drive my oldest to a Dr appointment this morning. As we do when we are just him and me, we talk about important things. This is one of my greatest joys as a father, in getting to know, understand and deep in my relationship with my loves. What was impressed upon me to share with him is how grateful that God chose my wife and I to be his parents. And although we may not always get it, right we still hope that we’re giving him everything that h...

Little Pieces of Love So today is day 2 of my boys and me making post it notes about what we love and appreciate about my wife, and placing them in places where she can see them in the morning. It’s incredibly cute to see my oldest and how much fun he’s having being sneaky about what he’s writing. And now my youngest is a three-year-old and it’s equally funny to see what he wants me to write for him. Now since I get up long before my wife does I’m in charge of placing the notes. And in ...

A Good Day, A Long Day, A Full Day So about a week or so before Christmas, I was invited to a BNI meeting by a friend. That meeting was this morning. Now I’ve had a lot of reservations and mixed feelings about BNI groups as some of them seem to focus just on the Making money absent the human component. Now, having had a chance to sub in for a friend of mine it seemed like even though there were some of those people at that BNI chapter, there were also a lot of genuine, caring people there ...

Unexpected Gifts: So today I was trying to get Remi (my 3yr old) ready in time so we could walk to school. But with missing shoes, an unpacked lunch, and a boy that wasn’t wanting to eat breakfast, we weren’t able to make it out in time to walk. This meant that we were going to have to rush off to the bus, which we barely made it to. But as I was “rocketing” Remi onto the bus, the bus driver assistant hands me a red envelope with all of our families names on it. Surprised I said thank y...

Oh Shoot, I Messed Up! So today I was giving my friend (who has quickly become a brother) a lot of grief over not getting in contact with people I had referred to him for the work he does. Only to forget a promise that I made to connect to a mutual friend of ours yesterday! I was awoken at close to 1am in panic of remembering that I didn’t follow through with my word. This really really hurts when I don’t follow through with what I say I’m going to do because I hold truthfulness, honesty, ...

Tender Mercies A reflection on yesterday morning: Two nights ago I was in immense spiritual battle that had left me in a very sad and lost place. This led me to pray my heart out and ask for both understanding and relief from the immense anguish I was facing. Through the night I was still facing these challenges although they had been greatly reduced, they still negatively impacted my sleep. So I woke up early, went for a walk and prayed some more. Still feeling broken, beaten, and t...

A Good Long Day After a long night of facing lots of shadow and lots of darkness, today was filled with connection and love and understanding. Although, in my morning walk, things started out pretty rough as I was still feeling deep in sorrow. But through a lot of prayer and a lot of soul-searching, I was able to find peace. Now this didn’t come all at once. And it was only five minutes before I either needed to take my boys to the bus or walk them to school that I was directed to take them ...

Darkness Attempting to Devour Light So I’ve just gotten back from a late night walk, my second walk of the day. I needed some extra clear my head space. It was dark and cloudy, but with an almost full moon, the light shown through on the occasion when it wasn’t obscured by thick wispy dark clouds. As the clouds moved across the face of the moon is interesting to see the Sheep and designs that swept across its face. At one point as I stood there watching there was what looked like a serpen...

From Student to Friend to Client to Brother: Yesterday evening after having helped people through some really difficult challenges through my work and my business, I received an unexpected voice note from someone that I care deeply about. He shared about how much the men’s work in the men’s group has meant to him, and how strong and independent he has been in the face of deep challenging heartache. And how, in the midst of all of that heartache and heartbreak he had experienced God‘s grace ...

In gratitude of beauty: I’m walking by the stream by my house today that runs along the street I walk on and run on and exercise along side and after the hours, I’ve spent cleaning up that stretch of stream how struck with this house being clean and how much natural beauty is there. I had to pause for a moment right by one of the overpasses that I had cleared out and it was as if the stream was saying thank you by just being and doing what it naturally is a naturally does. It’s moments lik...

Pre-hypothermic run back home. 🥶 So locally for the first day of the year celebration a group was created for a polar plunge. This sounded like a fun alternative to sitting in a stream all by myself, so I decided to join, with a twist. I knew they would likely just jump in and then come straight out. I wanted to stay and swim for a bit. And since I knew there were people partying on NYE the night before, I brought my snorkel gear and light to clean up the swimming area. So after I le...

It’s nearing 2026! There has been a lot of things overcome. There has been a lot of unexpected growth and learnings. There has been a deepening of love and understanding. New brothers have been found, new friendships formed. Unhealthy relationships have been removed, healthy boundaries have been formed. Physical injuries have occurred and have healed. My relationship to God has been examined and cleaned up. I’ve made advancements in business and my purpose. I’ve helped countles...

Man I’m feeling tired today. Yesterday I’d walked upstream in my local stream cleaning up garbage, golfballs, beer cans and other rubbish. Arriving empty handed other that a small mesh swimmers rubbish bag on a carabiner, I ended up with a 35 gallon black trash bag 1/4 the way filled with trash I’d found either around the stream or while I was in it. It was also like an adventure I’d go on as a child as I had to walk under the bridge of three roads to reach the trash. The overpasses were...
