Going ‘public’

Going ‘public’

Hi, Man, this still sucks! I really want to write and be present on here and show up consistently but to be completely honest, lately it feels like if I do stuff on the blog it means I have to think about what happened and acknowledge that he’s no longer here. WTF? You would be […]

The Opportunity of Adversity

The Opportunity of Adversity

“Adversity isn’t an obstacle that we need to get around in order to resume living our life. It’s part of our life. And I tend to think of it like my shadow. Sometimes I see a lot of it, sometimes there’s very little, but it’s always with me.” This woman, Aimee Mullins, is totally inspiring. […]

This Momentous Day

This Momentous Day

Today it’s been 2 years since Gumby died. The world still feels shit without him! I was wondering what to write & looking through some old photo’s & papers when I came across a scrap of paper from many years ago. I’d written this down after being incredibly motivated by it in a book by […]

Waves of Grief

Waves of Grief

Oh boy. I better warn you – this may be a tear-jerker. A good friend asked me the other day how I am doing. He & his family have had their share of deep, close, ‘should never happen’ loss & they also knew my dad & brother well so it helps to talk to him. […]
