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

For additional sunrise photos follow both @BugsySailor and @UPSupplyCo on Instagram. I don't post daily, but you will see additional content unvailable here.

Musings | 340 words

Not my usual listening, but I caught this song on the radio post sunrise. It’s titled “You Say” by Lauren Daigle, and it just seems to ring true lately. Maybe not so much from the rest of the song, but certainly from the opening stanza.

I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I’m not enough
Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up
Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low?
Remind me once again just who I am, because I need to know

Daily Fruit dated February 22

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.

Sometimes i think to myself...what if everyone was a big giant cheez-it.

With nobody behind the camera there can't be anyone in front.

One foil ball, one bifold wallet, three gummy worms, and a whole lot of chicken pox.

Thinking, thinking, thinking, ...and thought.
2007
This is awesome and not the generic awesome, but the very strong awesome that focuses on the awe.
2009
Relentless and tenacious.

Making a point to find the silver lining.
Yeah i'm a rebel, but i have a cause, some would say a lot of hella good causes.

Now that's hockey. A game-winning goal in a shutout and a hip check worthy of any career highlight reel always makes for a great day.
2013
Hustle harder, hustle smarter, hustle longer. Choose one, I don't care which.

I need a beehive before i can make honey.

What I wasn't sure I wanted to do, I now don't want to end.
