The Stoic Day Planner
After studying the Stoic philosophies these past few months, there are a few recurring themes, or practices that we can apply today.
Early to rise
Thankfulness
Meditation
Control of self
Walking
Reading
Purpose
Reflection
I’ll go into more detail in the next post.
Now Reading: The Peripheral
Gibson’s science fiction is so prophetic that it seems as if he is creating the future instead of imagining it.
I just found out this is book one of a three part series. Even better.
Care to peruse my Library? These are books I’ve read in the past or will read soon.
Now Reading- To Hold Up The Sky
Having recently finished Liu’s mind-bending Three-Body Problem, I was pleased to discover his short story anthology.
I don’t read a lot of science fiction unless it ties in with modern or near future technologies but Chinese science fiction takes it to the next level.
The Mini
“Hey Siri, shuffle play my Late + Loud jazz playlist…”
Apple HomePod Mini
**Update** Picking up from the Apple store today!
Passionate Photography
“Many photographers want to express emotion in their photographs, but how many could say they were moved emotionally when making them?”
Maybe this is one of the reasons why I feel like my photography has been stagnating lately? Does this explain my slump? Now I have something new to consider.

Autumn Nights
An excellent evening to sit, smoke, shoot and enjoy a medicinal beverage.
Cold + Cough
Is really starting to affect energy levels. Creativity levels down to zero.
Quarantine Month #8
Eight months ago today I started work from home due to the quarantine. I want and need the separation. WFH has blurred my work/life/creativity balance and it shows.
Keto Diet Update
