The Side Effects of Endorphins

Within a melting pot. Oh it could be my wife, my kids, the artist in my art class, Carl Sagen, my Dad, my brother, Gord Downie, my mentor in grad school, Michal Stipe, nature, my 10th grade teacher Mr. Fleck, my friend Ed as we learn a little discard a little and cook up the leftovers.

Role Model

I’ll keep this short because we are visiting family in Seattle. The grandkids are an influence as we want to model for them. They let our true child emerge.

Current Friends

Now that’s I am older than twenty nine. The friends we have, have withstood the test of time. They are classics by definition. They have shaped us and we have shaped them.

Nothing Lasts Forever

We lost our dog Cooper this year.

He was kindness, empathy, compassion and loyalty all without judgement. That’s a decent influence.

I know, I know
That my world has grown old
And nothing is forever
I know, I know
That my world has grown old
But it really doesn’t matter
If you say we’ll be together
If you promise you’ll be with me in the end
