life notes; flaws and all

a daily breath...

A thought du jour, my daily breath includes collected and conceived observations, questions of life, fortune cookie philosophies, reminders, messages of peace and simplicity, unsolicited advice, inspirations, quotes and words that got me thinking. They may get you thinking too . . .

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

haiku 4 you

The situation changes,
your mind changes and
your views of the news
will change over time.

Ingrained or Conditioned
Posted on March 3, 2022 by j.g.lewisLeave a comment

What we do, what we know,
how we respond is often
instinctive; even automatic.
   A learned behavior, a bias
(conscious or unconscious),
and even a habit must begin
somewhere. Ingrained or
conditioned.
   Inadvertent intentions can
halt or interfere progress,
lessen possibilities, and
interrupt critical thinking.
   Unlearn what society has
taught you. There are ample
lessons. Learn for your self.
   Be bold.

Not What It Used To Be
Posted on March 2, 2022 by j.g.lewis // 4 Comments

I’ve been hacked.
   There is no other way to say it, other than the soultalk page I have been running on Facebook for about 5 years is no longer under my control..
   soultalk regularly offered journaling programs and had developed into a trustworthy community.
   Now, I don’t have access to the subscribers, followers, or the private pages we used for our journaling sessions.
   Yeah, I’m pissed off, and there is nothing I can do about it. I’m not entirely sure how it happened, but Facebook can’t (or won’t) help.
   So, for now, if you get messages or invitations from soultalk, or see content or advertising this seems strange, know that the page it is not what it used to be, and not what it should be.
