The 15,000th blog post is 50 days away. on July 18.

Eight years and 110 days since beginning that impossible April Fool’s Day launch in 2009.

Didn’t it take 40 years of walking around Jericho for the walls to finally crumble?

Pretty big spider. Quarter on the right.

Free at least. i felt good about this in an unusually nice way.

 

What happens when you reach the finish line?

You automatically reach another starting line.

This post concludes the 8th consecutive year writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts (on 5 separate sites), without missing a single day.

One week, two wins

Notice?

 

One week, two wins.

First time publicly at a beach without a shirt.

First time running two miles continuously. The usual one mile warm up, a short break, and then a 1.1 mile second half.

At Disney i labeled these “seemingly insignificant” events.

They seem insignificant, but they are anything but.

Be a noticer and rejoice in what you notice, even the small stuff.

Today is Pentecost

Today is Pentecost.

In 90 days when this publishes, we’ll be three days past his 16th birthday.

Two incredibly historical dates.

They come and go.

The trick is to be ever mindful and aware.

Move regrets as close to zero as possible.

We shall not pass the way again

Windermere Prep High School Basketball milestones
Praying for safe travels for all fans (for all teams) tonight.

 

We shall not pass the way again.

For the seniors, this is a once-in-a-lifetime moment.

May everyone pass through it safely.

And may the lessons learned carry over to the life they lead after High School.
