Not gonna lie. The thought of buying pot in Colorado has popped into the cranium.

Why?

Why not.

It’s legal.

Yeah, legal.

As in totally acceptable.

PS. Not to smoke. Just to experience the sea change in society.

Deep moments but not for everyone at the same time

That moment when you want to go deep in conversation but intentionally share something with a casual tone instead – because in that moment it’s so far away from worrying about. And you don’t want to make the other person overly emotional.

A thing that won’t have potentially profound ramifications until a future date?

Maybe in a week. Maybe not for 30 years. Maybe never.

That moment when it dawns on you that neither person may ever return to a special, favorite, or memorable place.

Driving away from Logan Pass, down along Lake McDonald, was that moment.

Patience is strength.

Gratitude is strength.

Forgiveness is strength.

Had only two things to say to the wonderful folks attending the surprise celebration.

  1. I don’t know what to say.

  2. Thank you.

Most of us are in a different place than we were 15 years ago.

For a blessed number, it’s a much more servant-focused place.

A place they never saw coming.

A place they could have never foreseen.

A good and decent place.

A crutch to glorify self-pity?

We can take solace in knowing that everyone is either going through hell right now, or just coming out of it, or about to start going through hell at any moment. We live our lives moving in and out of these three places.

To think someone else has it easier is nonsense.

And a crutch to glorify self-pity.
