The trap to be busy, work

The trap of being busy.

Insidious.

Habitual.

Common.

Addicting.

Harmful.

Unhealthy.

Regretful.

Please stop letting your blind ambition erase your intuition.

Praying for Earth, work

Artemis II is returning to Earth after sending humans farther from Earth than ever before in history.

Artemis II traveled around the Moon and lost contact (it was planned for) with NASA for a brief period.

Extraordinary accomplishment in human history.

And as i type this (4:25pm April 7, 2026) we are three hours and 35 minutes from our President’s Iranian-peace-deal deadline.

The work-side of me can focus on a grand picture of Earth in an infinite cosmos.

Incomprehensible.

And we are infinitesimal.

Everything we know about Earth and our Milky Way Galaxy…

i have come to learn through science, that we are so blessed, so extraordinary.

But we are the center of nothing.

If Earth disappeared, the cosmos continues, unaltered, uncaring, unaware.

Carl Sagan is intriguing me in a way similar to Jesus, Gandhi, MLK, Mother Theresa, Stephen Hawking, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Sheldon Cooper.

Praying now that when i wake up tomorrow (April 8, 2026, 5:00am) our Earth isn’t ‘on-fire’.

Career mantra…

What would Walt do?

If Disney ran your life.

Work presence

Many, if not all, of Granite Park Chalet’s Guests focused everything in one direction. No harm, no foul. You may notice two people embracing and watching, lower left.

Work presence…

If Disney ran your life…

Don’t let your blind ambition erase your intuition. Hat tip to Jimmy Buffett.

Always be friendly

Always be friendly. We didn’t know when we met these two fellow cross-country cyclists, that we’d be sharing a group campsite hours later…
The campfire pit is visible here.

Be nice, be kind, be friendly.

You never know who you’re gonna meet.

And you never know when you will meet them again a few hours later — at a group-camping site, making a fire and roasting marshmallows together.
