last week was an intense week of hard core “work”, where i am working straight at least 12-15 hours days. i know that it’s not all that ‘hard’ when i consider how fortunate i am. but again, that good fortunate is mostly in the realm of the material and it doesn’t really do much in the long run. alas, i keep falling back to this transition point. i keep reminding myself that i need to create something different moving forward. i know father hood will take its course and with unknown adventures. it feels repetitive but i need to remind myself. at least i am 1\/10th of the way to one of my biggest goals this year. when i successfully meditate 30 days in the row, then i will double down on the goal! meanwhile, i am reading a sort of eye opening book on how to raise a daughter. compared to boys, it seems doubly more difficult to raise a girl! there’s so many freaking dangers a girl must face when shes growing up. at least the message that it keeps bringing home is that despite all the dangers that the world offers, i have do have the great power to influence my daughter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
