When you “stop to smell the roses” and nearly snort some fly smashin’. Hope you’re having a lovely Sunday, surprises and all 🤣 . . . . . . #random #randoms #random📷 #fly #flies #stoptosmelltheroses #stoptosmelltheflowers #presence #haha #hahas #surprisesurprise #surprise #sundaystroll #sundaywalks #neighborhood #sundayvibe #easylikesundaymorning

I've been thinking about this #taoism concept a lot lately. Illness has forced me into creating a bit of a dream job schedule-wise (and in other wises too!), yet I've persisted in feeling bad for being unable to work normal-people hours.⠀ ⠀ Sometimes this guilt results in my pushing through and trying to work anyways, but persistence doesn't enable one to work well over immense pain and/or fibro fog; leading to not-great and/or not-much work actually being accomplished. A complete waste of time.⠀ ⠀ @emotion.l.contagion introduced me to a similar idea from the ancient Greeks, kairos, which means the right, critical, or opportune moment. M-F, 8-5 is not my opportune moment, not anything close. And that's okay.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ This quote sums up a spiritual concept that says the most efficient way to spend your time is to look within, and do what you want to do; that this will lead to right action, the kind of work that doesn't feel like work and leads to fantastic results.⠀ ⠀ So I tested it. Not much got done for 1.5 days, not essay-writing, anyways — personal growth-y stuff and other writing — but not work that leads to an already agreed-upon paycheck. ⠀ ⠀ Then at around 10pm the second night, during the time I often just try not to cry from pain, I quite suddenly got up and wrote most of an essay — cause I felt like it. And it was good. And it happened so fast, so fun.⠀ ⠀ I've continued, with positive results! (Not a real shocker since I write about cannabis and adore it, of course I want to do it often.) There's plenty of time. Here's to being forced into a rather dreamy lifestyle! #laotzu #taoism #time #rightaction #timemanagement #spoonie #spoonieproblems #cannabiswriter #freelancer #freelancewriter #writerslife #getigetit #grateful #gratitude #abundance

Cannabis lovers often face judgment, even if they love it for medical reasons – but parents who are also canna-patients get the worst of it. ⠀ ⠀ My latest for @leafly is in my bio link. Happy Father's day, tomorrow!⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #cannabis #parenting #fathersday #happyfathersday #cannabisadvocate #cannabiscommunity #medicalcannabis #medicalmarijuana #cannabiswriter #writersofinstagram

Ahhh, another satisfying day livin’ la vida Long Beach. (#dogsittinglife) I mostly worked, got to send off an essay about parents who meditate their chronic illnesses with cannabis — and, more specifically, the judgement they face and the harm it can do. . It means a lot to me to be doing this kind of work, being sick forever is a dangerously misunderstood situation; to the point where many #spoonies just accept, “Ableds don’t get it.” Like, that’s that. Don’t waste your precious energy trying to explain the minor issue of your LIFE — just buck up and try not to whine (but not so little they start saying you’re faking). You really can’t win. Happy to be doing my part to change things. . And, of course, my sweet little puppy dog friends are contributing to the lovely day. They’re asleep next to me and I just want to wake them up to tell them how cute they are, it’s really out of control. Hope your Thursday’s been thriving 😘 . . . . . . #longbeach #lbc #rosiesdogbeach #cannabiswriter #spoonieproblems #spoonielife #spooniecommunity #medicalcannabis #cannabisheals #medicalcannabis #writersofinstagram #beach #longbeachlife #belmontshorelb #doglove #grateful #gratitude #abledsareweird #thursdaythoughts #thursdayvibes #thursdayfeels
