Not Near Enough
The prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “near/far.” Use “near,” use “far,” use them both if you’d like. In fact, if you start your post with one and end with the other, you get bonus points! Enjoy! Near… 26 DAYS : 09 HOURS : 24 MINUTES : 12 SECONDS Time is such a crazy thing.

“Good luck with your self-discovery, Ben!”

Running… for What? – #SoCS
Run, walk, crawl, and ALWAYS be open to go someplace you didn’t plan. You might have been given a faulty map at the start.

calendarize – #SoCS
Why did someone feel the need to turn this noun into a verb when “PUT IT ON YOUR CALENDAR” worked just fine ever since we had… calendars?

Time to put some more of our “White Gilt” to work.

honesty – #SoCS
Honesty is hardly ever heard, and mostly what I need from you.
