Immediately after finishing my previous post I put on my Oculus VR, opened up the meditation app and found myself sitting in a grass field. My favorite meditation practice is Zen, where the goal is to have a clear mind like the sky and to just ‘be.’ Thoughts are like white clouds that arrive out…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 2.24.19 – Second Post

Journal Entry – 2.24.2019
It is Sunday February 24th at 5:52 AM. It looks like I’m back to my old routine of naturally waking up very early. I think the mostly has to do with getting back into my exercise routine which promotes a very restful sleep. I still haven’t started the morning gym routine again but I’m back…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 2.24.2019
Journal Entry – Karate and Wrestling
It is 5:51 AM and I’m up later than usual. Yesterday I had two karate sessions making four for the past two days and I’m battered and bruised. Surprisingly, it isn’t as bad as I had thought.

It is 3:24 AM. It is a chilly 39 degrees outside and although there is a beautiful waning gibbous moon it remains very dark on the ground.

Still left to do are: write this post, study Japanese, put Sega…… Continue reading Journal Entry 12.13.2016 – Memories of Christmas lights

Time passes, children grow and families move away; yet each one leaves something behind which add to the character of the house. It could be something material such as…… Continue reading Growing up in Golfview Woods – My Memoir
Journal Entry – 10.19.2016
It is 5:14 AM. This week I received a response to a message I sent many years ago to my very first internet friend. Unlike most people I still have all my data from when I first started using computers back in 1992. I also keep a treasure chest that I’ve had since I was…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 10.19.2016
Dream – Meadow Road
I have a reoccurring dream that comes once every year or so. In the dream I return to my childhood home on Meadow Road. It is a place I own and I have the keys in my pocket. Going inside it is I know that nobody has been inside in a very long time. In…… Continue reading Dream – Meadow Road
