Fuel the Sunrises

Looking for more ways to support this crazy project? You can always add a cup of coffee to keep me going strong in the mornings, or a tank of gas to get me to some new places.

Every once in a great while I send out a newsletter with sunrise updates, life stories, project developments, and various shenanigans. I'd love to share these with you and will respect your inbox.

Blah Blah Blah

Most mornings, all I want is to see clearly to the horizon as I wonder what’s out there. What is it, just eight miles or so to the horizon? That’s not very far. I’m drawn to the simple gradients in the sky and don’t need much more than that to find some delight.

Daily Fruit dated June 15

Daily Fruit was a daily journal I kept from October 2001 through July 2015. The idea was "a few words a day keeps the psychiatrist away". Not sure that worked, but it was an incredibly healthy practice. They are meant to be read for face value.

Essentially, I'm embarrassed this is here. But you know, vulnerability and stuff.

United fathers.
Making the trip, pointing the specs, asking for props.
Connections since baptism and beyond.
The touch of the keys and touch of the soul...how piano and spirit go hand in hand.
Conversation galore in touch with all the dreams, all the all, and more...thank you.

I'm like fat albert, millions of girls want to be my friend, but none of them want to date me.

There is a stark contrast in people between those who are believers and those who are not, or you could say the optimistics and pessimistics. For all the people who's negativity is thrown into the dreams of others to try to rattle them is the exact reason why a project like this is needed. It's amazing the absolute contrast in people.

Yippie kay ye is ridonculous.
Dream by dream it's a fairytale.

If you ask me things like experience, skills, and education hardly matter, life is about doing, nike has known this all along, just do it.

The C bill breakfast.
When you speak in absolutes it dilutes everything you say.
Being a man of your word is one of the best things you can do for your integrity and character.

If Bugsy wasn't emo from time to time, Bugsy wouldn't be Bugsy.
So, this is how it's going to be.
She filled it all.
Am I sure? I have no idea, but the one thing I am sure of...

As fiery as every year before.
Ninety years, three kids, eight grandkids, and fourteen great grandkids.

Win big, fail big.
Without honey, life loses it's sweetness.

Do you ever become the cool kid?
