Why Every Day?

 I have made a post just about every day for a couple of years usually posting around the same time every morning.  But why, you may be asking yourself of me.  In case you were wondering I do it because I can.  Doing this is good for my mind.  I am my own writer, editor, and publisher.  Any mistakes I make fall squarely on me.  And believe me my wife will point them out to me.  I used to correct them, but that meant sending out new links.  So, if there is an error I just might leave it and maybe correct it days later.

Sometimes these posts can be like a daily devotional, if I'm so inclined, or they're about nothing at all.  They might be at least a bit humorous, even if I'm just laughing at myself.  I try to stay on the lighter side, but even in regard to Spirituality, I don't see my task as evangelism.  It's just a part of who I am.  But I do avoid politics although, God knows, most anything can be taken as political these days.  Some days I'm thinking and some days I'm not.  But the one thing this blog is not is my own psychotherapy.

I'm always smoking a pipe whenever I am writing.  I'm smoking a pipe when thinking.  I'm smoking a pipe when I am doing neither.  Sometimes I'd just smoke a pipe while meditating.  I smoke a pipe.  I believe I'm at my best when smoking a pipe.  If I'm at my worst, I've found a glass of wine helps.  But I don't drink wine to get drunk.  If I wanted to do that there are other things I could drink that would do that rather quickly.   Wine makes me mello.

I can get stressed mostly in the evenings.  And I think of stress as a mortal enemy not that we can live with no stress.  But always I check to make sure I've had my meds for the day.  This blog is stress-free.  Even if I have nothing ready, I'm working a couple of days ahead.  I'll polish my work in the morning before posting.  But there is no stress here and there shouldn't be for you either.  I don't always hit a home run.  I might strike out once in awhile.  My wife usually let's me know how she thinks I did.  

I'm smoking my Dunhill pipe this morning.  I can always make a post about a pipe.  I can write tobacco reviews.  But I avoid writung about my moods.  I avoid therapy here.  In fact, I'd just rather you find a post interesting, if nothing else.   I get some feedback.  I have a pretty good idea as to how my posts do on any given day.  I've written a lot no one has seen.  One day an idea looks good until I read it the next day and think it sucks.  I might stay with a theme and simply re-write it.  I might throw it out all together.  

It's not often I write and post on the same day, unless I'm really inspired and I'll go with that and save what I had for the next day.  I watch a lot of vids and keep up with the news.  I don't have a team.  It's just me.  I don't even like to tell my wife what a post is going to be.  I'd rather she be pleasantly surprised, or shocked, as the case may be.  

I've been smoking Old Professor pipe tobacco quite a bit in the mornings.  I like a good English with my first cup of coffee.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.
