Malik zips along a special, acrobatic adventure en route to Sammy's treehouse. Hopefully his ice cream doesn't melt along the way.

I Love Being Warm, I Love Being Cold
Jul. 8th, 2025 10:17 pmjohno_1960Weather is not climate. The world is not ending. But, things are changing, and not always to our species expectations. The world will continue. And humanity will adapt or die. Maybe adapt and die. I don’t think anyone will live forever, although that is just my opinion.
So, today in my town it was 100 degrees Fahrenheit, and I had to clear up a fallen limb in my backyard. I started work before high noon, and worked with my clippers and loppers for a couple of hours. It felt great to sweat, and to work slowly and methodically to clip the branches into the compost bin. I was reminded of the work my grandfather in law did when I first moved over to Boise, and I didn’t comprehend the rate that he was working. Now that I’m close to the age he was then, it makes sense to me. I am not in a hurry to get things done. I know that the job takes the amount of time the job takes. And I am on board with that.

Anniversaries
Jul. 6th, 2025 10:17 pmjohno_1960I have decreasing interest in milestones, now that I have completed my time in the workforce. I’m going to be 65 in twenty two days. They will then pay me to be an old person. Of course, I contributed to the fund over my working career, so it’s not like they are doing me a favor. But I’m just not going to measure time like that anymore. I’m not going to measure time at all. Seems like a young person’s game.
And I’m not young anymore. I don’t mind that. It’s good that I am not young. I’ve seen some things. My only regret is that I didn’t see more. But I still have time.

Jun. 30th, 2025 10:39 pmjohno_1960In less than a month I turn 65 years old. I get Social Security. I am retired. I have my days to myself. I’m thankful. I am practicing my spiritual path, trying to quiet my mind, meditate, and be grateful. Following the Essene path and leaning into secondary character energy.
Blessing walk is hard. I think I need to leave my headphones off. Spend the time in silence. I will try it next time.
