BREATHE N BOUNCE

EPISODE CLII: THE JOURNEY OF 50 AND BEYOND

 As I turned 50 this week, I take a look back at my life as whole.  The good and the bad and examine where do I go next.  Where can we all find common ground with the person we were and the person we are now.  Finding those good parts we had, and merging them with the person we are now.  Letting go of things that don't serve us.  This is my battle.  This is my aim.  I want to be the best I can be, every day.  So come on and do it with me stoner!!!!!

EPISODE CLI: HIGH SCHOOL, HELL, AND HIGH FIVES

People like to say high school is the best time of your life.  Well first I would say tell that to the Yellowjackets.  Secondly, mine sucked.  So I will talk about it in great detail here.  And if you are a high school graduate, you might want to check this shit out.  I promise you will be able to relate and walk away with strong feelings.  

EPISODE CL: THE DISAPPOINTING MAN

May is always hard for me, and it has been hitting me hard.  People I love don't receive me the way I want them to because of my actions in the past.  I acknowledge it and I talk about the complicated relationship I have had with people, especially women.  It 's because of my insecure and anger and I have to deal with it so I talk about that along with other stuff that's heavy.

EPISODE CXLIV: SLEEP NOW

 I was going to talk about something else.  Something important.  However, I was very tired and it made me think about how tired people are all the time.  So I thought I would focus on that.  Why don't we sleep? And why is it when we try we still don't? These questions and more in this episode.

EPISODE CXLVIII: STOP, DROP, AND STFU

 When we get angry, in that moment we are not aware of the damage we are causing when we let it consume us.  I have paid many times for my anger getting the best of me and as of late, I feel like I am slipping into the abyss of anger.  So it's up to me to do something about it.  I need to figure out what is the cause,and how I will handle it.  I can let my anger be a lighter not a blowtorch.  Rememeber stoners, we can only control what we can control.  Ourselves is the best and only place to go.

EPISODE CXLVII: ITS HAPPENING MAN!

We all struggle but struggle looks different to everyone.  We all experience life differently through different lenses and shit like that.  However, we have to remember that things happen.  Life happens.  Not necessarly to us, but it's here.  Our problems are not alway permamnent and our joy isn't either.  Learnig to live with this knowledge may help.  No gurantees but not swinging is a guranteed strike.

EPISODE CXLVI: MONSTER EMERGING

 This was a very difficult episode for me to because I talk about many of the emotions and thoughts I ahve been fighting as of late and it sure hasn't been emerging.  I will once again talk about the terrible things I did to people I love and my hope for them to heal and trying my best to reconnect.  I am also trying to deal with my own internal anger that has been coming out lately and trying to find a way to let the monster sleep.

EPISODE CXLV: RISE LIKE JESUS

This is not a religious episode.  It is sort of an Easter episode since its an early release.  It is a call to everyone to do their best in life.  Rise to the occasion so to speak.  Rise like Jesus did when he was battered and bloodied as he carried the cross as we all carry crosses in this life.  So lets talk about how can we walk our walk with grace and fire, and find a way to win.

EPISODE CXLIV: 1%

We all go through life with the intention of being better and being happy.  It doesn't always work out that way.  So what do we do? We have to put in the work.  We have to do our best, even if it may look better each day.  We just have to be and do one percent better than we did yesterday.  And it will all work out one way or another.  No worries.

EPISODE CXLIII: F U FATHER TIME

There is only so many hours in a day.  How many times have you said this to yourself? I know I have.  What if you were to change your perception from that to how much can I do with the time I have left.  Sure, father time lets us know we are getting older.  But what if we can tell him that we are going to use that time to get better as we age like a fine wine.
