Seems like a lot of us are living in a kind of false security, a kind of temporary place of sort-of-comfort, a little hole of mediocrity, it might feel at its worst, or maybe, at its best, something that’s all right, good enough, safe and comfortable. Or maybe it’s not feeling that way anymore. But […]

Well, you know, sometimes it’s just hard to end the day, because over the course of the day I’m starting to build up work, starting to get things done, and then now it’s getting on to the late evening, and it’s time to go to sleep and start working again tomorrow. Once again, a very

Well, I recently just brushed my teeth and I feel very refreshed and clean. Do you ever hear people talk about how good it feels to brush their teeth? Do they feel it’s important enough to let you know that they’ve recently brushed their teeth? How often does this come up in conversation? How did
