Be someone worth imitating.

Write something worth reading.

In this chess game, your character and values are the king. Copywriting and content, the queen.

There’s a song by John Mayer:
Stop This Train

I think of the song.
The speed of life.
The speed of my kids’ lives.
The speed of years flying by.

No solution to slow it down.
Just try to enjoy it.
Embrace it.
Go with it.

Google, Perplexity, Claude all have this in common:

They can bring the world’s knowledge to you in seconds;

but they can’t bring you wisdom.

Wisdom has to be earned.

The knowledge has to be acted upon, applied. It takes years.

Guys, I’ve been reading and studying the Bible for years. But I just learned the Bible references unicorns, in Job, in the KJV. Not other editions, but that one.

And now I have some digging to do.

As Solomon said, mourning helps you consider your destiny.

It helps you appreciate what you do have.

It helps you take to heart that your time goes by fast, so enjoy the good moments. 5/5

A friend of mine told me, “I don’t want you to hang paintings and pictures that make you sad.”

I’ve been stewing on that one for awhile.

Sadness is an emotion that many of us are afraid to embrace.

I tried to avoid it at all costs. 🧵1/5

Sometimes we are mourning a physical death.

Sometimes we are mourning a heartbreak or heartache.

Sometimes we are mourning a wedge in a friendship or relationship.

A pet.
A friend’s loss.
An empty nest.
Any number of life events. 4/5

When you’re an author,
you have to go back
and read your own books.

Otherwise, you may forget.

Get bitter or get better. Your choice.

Pay attention. Eyes open.
There’s so much going on
Here.

[omer redden @omer_redden]

Figure out what works.
Then do more of it.
Until it doesn’t work.
Then do less of it.
Simple, right?

One good humiliation per day.

Been praying this for close to a year. God is faithful, eh!

Wondering though…what if you get 2-3 per day? Or a handful per day?

Do they carry over so you get a break or relief later? Asking for a friend.

“I have prayed for years for one good humiliation a day, and then, I must watch my reaction to it. I have no other way of spotting both my denied shadow self and my idealized persona.”

You were always, always, always on time. 🎵

The lady sings it so much better than I do. But it’s been in my head a lot lately.

Songs for seasons.
This is one.

There are times you celebrate like an idiot because you fixed the simplest of things.

Could be a cabinet door, a trash track, a bike chain, a lawn cart… or all the above.

Today is that day of celebration! 🥳
