Maybe not new me… but a more levelled up version?! Constantly learning and challenging myself.

No idea how to make videos to be honest lol. Asides from just taking a standing real time video, I’m not sure how to add music and make transitions.

Thank you!! May need to make a new playlist!

It’s definitely something lol thank you! 😊

Double the time.. double the results?

I started attending the gym again a year and a half ago and have consistently shown up typically three times a week. It’s become a passion of mine and I’ve been wanting to put more time in.

I have two friends who want to reach their fitness and health goals. I was excited to hear that they were ready to hop on the bandwagon. A determining factor was the price point. Long story short, I now attend TWO gyms.

Today was day one attending both gyms which explains why I had two rounds of exercise to report for the #31days workout challenge.

I’ve decided to match whichever area I’m working out first so I give my body time to recover.

Let’s see how this goes!! 💪

His acoustics songs are a whole vibe on its own!!

I read a little snippet about him after you had asked. I knew he had to be writing about his father during his one song. The lyrics were so sad when you listen to it in a heartfelt way placing yourself in his shoes. I understood that before reading about him.

I more so just add songs to different playlists based on my mood or activity and call it good lol

No I do not. I have never thought to research the artist to understand where they come from or why the songs they write and sing resonate with them however I can see how that would make it more powerful and interesting.

Playfulness is a discipline. Yesterday my nephew (3yo) had a birthday party. His parents rented a massive blow-up obstacle course for the party, and over 15 kids (aged from 3-8yo) from around the neighborhood came over to celebrate -whether they were invited or not. All the parents were there too, but none of them seemed interested in engaging with the kids in play and laughter.

In a world of fear, uncertainty, and doubt I try and make a point to actively pursue things that are an outright resistance to modern cultural trends. In a world where kids play and parents have half-baked, surface level small talk, my eyes see the playfulness of a child as resistance. Their imagination and ignorance of the world outside of that blow-up obstacle course gives them, for that moment, a Joy no other parent had that day. I learned from them, and from the start of the party I joined them in play -being the only adult to chase them on the bouncy obstacle course, rough-house, and share wonderful moments with the kids. I had an absolute blast. Here were some of the sweet, and heartbreaking, things they said to me as we played:

"A," a boy maybe 8, asked, "Can I hug you? I'm so glad I met you."

"C," a girl maybe 5 said, "I'm going to pretend that you're my dad!" She was one of the few who's father wasn't present at the party, and my family drove in from Houston so I don't know about any of these kids.

"H," a boy maybe 5 asked, "Do you live here? Am I going to be able to see you again."

"E" a girl maybe 8 said, "You're out of this world!"

For remembrance, I only allowed them to taunt me by saying, "nanna-nanna-boo-boo," since some of the other words they were using to provoke me [playfully] were not kind. And since they refused to call me by my name, and again used unkind names, I allowed them to come together as a group and give me a name that wasn't mean and that parents would approve of....they named me "Warm Butt." 😂 I could tell that they respected the ground rules of kindness (in speech) and gentleness (with the younger kids, or ones intimidated by roughhouse).

Awe!!! I have tears in my eyes! You sir are amazing!! To recognize how much the children would enjoy this warms my heart. I have experienced the same as well. I volunteer with my niece and nephew’s school and on field trips and outings the kids and teachers all call me “auntie.” When the kids were younger junior kindergarten to grade 3 random kids I had never met wanted to sit on my lap, hold my hand, tell me I’m pretty, ask if I remember them and tell me different things about their day or week. Now grade 4-6 the kids smile when they see me, they say hi when they see me outside of the school setting, they run up and give me a hug and tell me they have missed me. I wish more people would take time to realize how precious these moments are. Thank you for bringing more joy to their day!! ☺️

I feel this to my core!! Sometimes people don’t realize the value of those small moments.. often times they are the ones that become the most memorable and special! 💜 For this reason, I tend to “overtake” pictures or videos but once that moment passes you cannot go back. Yes you can remember them in your mind but it’s so nice to actually look back and see it or re-watch it! ☺️

Awe!! ☺️ Thank you so much! I appreciate your kindness. I enjoy yours as well!

Oh no need to tell me that lol I really listen to the words closely and feel things at an extremely deep level. It was just a big shift from dancing around the kitchen to feeling somber. His music is good as well though!

I look forward to hearing more suggestions. 😊

lol this made me giggle! 🤭

Your food post and the music were a big part of why I felt inspired. Such uplifting and fun music to listen to.

I’m in the cleanup process now and have Iam Tongi on now but it’s more melancholy and making me emotional lol good thing I didn’t start with this guy 🤣
