What books do you want to read? For some time now I’ve told myself I wanted to read various versions of the Bible front to back, as well as other religious texts. The “Egyptian Book Of The Dead” is also something I’ve taken an interest in. The night we left the pier a friend of … Continue reading Next Chapter.

Sh*t’s and Giggls
What do you enjoy doing most in your leisure time? Absolutely nothing! Is quite possibly my favorite thing to do. Just letting my mind wander and being still. More recently though, I’ve gotten back into writing. The more I do it, the more I look forward to the next time I’ll get to write again. … Continue reading Sh*t’s and Giggls
LionEl
Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc. First and foremost I’ve liked my name since a child even though people referred to it as an “old” name. It seemed to have fit me from back then. I’d say it had a certain majesty to it that comes with the first four letters. … Continue reading LionEl
Who knows….
What's your dream job? As a kid I’d always tell people that when I got older I wanted to be a garbage man lol….but that was only so I could ride on the side of the truck. Once i put though into I realized that I’ve never really thought about having a “dream job” per … Continue reading Who knows….
Lead….
What makes a good leader? Foresight, respect, understanding, empathy, emotional intelligence….just to name a few a characteristics. As an effective leader the need for power can’t be in your wheel house. There has to come a time when being “in charge” no longer matters as much as accomplishing whatever the collective goal is. Will there … Continue reading Lead….
DuhClutter
Where can you reduce clutter in your life? Writing this on three hours of sleep in the last 36 hours so pardon my typos and poor punctuation. As someone who takes pride in learning to keep clutter to a minimum, one area I would say I’d like to cut down on the clutter would be…on … Continue reading DuhClutter
LIONel
What is your favorite animal? What’s in a name? Right? Always having an affinity for Lions and what makes them tick, I’ve grown more and more infatuated with them. Though labeled as aggressive animals…they’re very laid back creatures. The aggressiveness only shows itself when necessary, at least from the Lion. Due to the fact that … Continue reading LIONel
Ghosts of Futures Past
Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why? Understanding that time is simply a concept created to be able to track our place in history. I try to apply that logic in reminding myself to remain as present as possible. It also feels as though I tend to think more … Continue reading Ghosts of Futures Past
From The Hip
What is your mission? Sheesh, that’s a heavy question. Just about every time I feel as though I’ve figured what my mission is in this life…the mark gets set out further. Something I’ve heard from the lips of my grandmother since a child was, “to whom much is given, much is tested.” Honestly speaking I … Continue reading From The Hip
PROMPTly
What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life? A long life is optimal of course but…..if left up to my conditions, being fully conscious of myself and my surroundings is a must for me. Seeing people that live to a point where they have no idea of who they are … Continue reading PROMPTly
ImPROMPTvization
What could you do differently? Not really one for the “if I could go back and change this, I would…” train of thought but in answering this prompt I’ll entertain. Obviously with hindsight being 20/20, one constant that always caused me to second guess myself in moments that I more than likely would’ve faired very … Continue reading ImPROMPTvization
ImPROMPTu
What are your biggest challenges? It would be a toss up between my procrastination and being my harshest critic. At time the two go and hand. I will literally critique myself so hard while in process that I’ll stagnate myself due to second guessing each step. It’s mainly done to minimize mistakes but I know … Continue reading ImPROMPTu
