GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

LENGUA DE SENAS = “SIGN LANGUAGE” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I have a post about doing things while you sleep 😉

I do not mean actually doing something while you sleep (rest is important) but things that may be possible to make progress in while you are not actively doing that particular thing.

An easy example but perhaps not a regular occurrence would be the download of a large file that would take hours.

Most people are not going to wait and do nothing until the download is complete, they would do something and then come back once the file is downloaded.

Perhaps you read a few chapters of a book or cleaned your room and when you were done so was the download.

Now what if instead of the computer doing one thing and you doing another, you did both somehow?

Imagine what could be something else that you wanted to do that was similar to this that would allow you to do more things you wanted to do without all the time it would take to do it?

Here are a couple ideas and maybe these ideas will spark an idea of your own:

-Record the audio of a teacher’s lesson that is reviewing an upcoming test and listen to it while you clean your room.

-When traveling somewhere while in the car pick an activity you want to do that would take such a long time you might not want to do it and do that activity when traveling (maybe sign language or drawing one page of your very own comic book until you have a full comic book. You aren’t driving but you are traveling and this would be like the download example.

-When getting ready for bed include something that you could do while in bed like stretch or meditate before dozing off (these suggestions do not take long and in the minutes it takes to fall asleep after laying down for bed these could be done).

I am sure you can think of something if you want and while writing this post I decided I will try to memorize all the countries of the world while using the bathroom by reading a list of 10 at a time and testing myself and reviewing the next time I use the restroom (I am currently doing this with US State Capitals).

RECICLAR = “RECYCLE” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

RECYCLER = “RECYCLE” IN FRENCH 🇫🇷

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today’s post is about recycling.

I have been recycling my garbage for years now even though I have been aware of recycling much longer.

I used to throw trash out of my car window when I was younger and today that is something I would not do.

My point is I have grown to appreciate the concept of recycling and it requires little additional effort to contribute to less pollution and more value with resources that can be recycled.

I think what changed my approach to waste disposal was the idea that what is convenient for one to rid the trash on hand is probably not convenient for the environment.

I have been to places that have large populations and clean city streets and that is not for any reason other than that population maintaining that condition.

I have yet to follow through with my intention to fill up a trash bag of public trash on roadsides or parks but in 2025 I will. Focusing on my own trash is one thing and thinking about other’s trash is another. Until that moment I will continue to recycle.

I will revisit the concept and value of recycling in future post.

Today’s post is about a modern historical event and an achievement of the human race.

On October 13th 2024 the company SpaceX launched a rocket into space and reclaimed the portion of the rocket used to initiate the launch using the same structure from which it was launched.

The ability to keep portions of the rocket for future use in a timely manner will save and reduce cost associated with future missions.

The mechanism used to “catch” the returning portion of the rocket are referred to as “chopsticks”.

The journey towards the possibility of planetary travel has reached a milestone getting humans closer to making that possibility a reality.

Here is a video of the “chopsticks”event to see what I was describing:

META = “GOAL” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I will “begin” this post with the call to attention with the familiarity of the structure of any post on this blog of LOVE 😉

I would often say “In today’s post” and then provide a description of the general subject matter you could expect.

The reason for mentioning this is now that we are into year 3 (🥰) of this blog I have kept what has been observed every post for a reason. It will always be something I want to say and allows me to focus time creating each post for you on the creative and unique “middle” of every post.

I will be adding or modifying parts of the blog in future post so there can be more unique daily contributions similar to the foreign language word/phrase of the day.

Happy New Year once again and I for one am excited for 2025❕

I have set a goal to include more healthy systems of love (habits and rituals) in each and every day and starting with today.

Here is today’s gratuity practice and it should look familiar because I have presented this to you previously on this blog.

My goal is to have a daily practice with meditation, journaling, a post on this blog (I refer to this blog sometimes as TS&TSR) , an hour of effort with Alpha Wolf Tribe , yoga (at least stretching) and observation of gratuity.

Do you have any goals for 2025?

RESEÑA = “REVIEW” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽 CRITIQUE =“REVIEW” IN FRENCH🇫🇷

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I have a post that is a review of the year 2024. 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣4️⃣

To summarize 2024 in a single word, I would say “Growth”. 📈

Every year will have moments that will be appreciated more than others. When comparing years there will be some that are more appreciated than others. Not unlike each year, each day provides opportunities for growth.

I have an ongoing intention to grow as a person and 2024 offered plenty of opportunities. I did not use every opportunity that had potential for growth but I did apply myself in a way that it was an honest effort. 💪🏼

I have become better at practicing patience and this also relates to my expectation of growth with respect to the time it may take for progress to be had so that growth is realized.

I am going to once again have the intention to grow as a father/man/human in 2025 as well as practicing patience & LEADING WITH LOVE 💟

I hope you had a wonderful 2024 and wish you a HAPPY 2025 and may it be your best year yet. I can’t wait to see you! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

NUEVO / ANO = “NEW / YEAR” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I have a post about the holiday New Year’s Day and the observation of a year’s end and recognition of the next calendar day holiday with tomorrow’s “New Year’s Eve”.

I often reference a holiday as the subject matter if on the day I am posting happens to be a holiday.

The point of any and every post is to provide a loving reminder of how much you mean to me and show my love and gratitude for you, my children.

The secondary intention is to include in addition to that symbol of love a variety of things that I hope you find interesting.

The reason today’s topic is New Year’s Eve is I want to use tomorrow’s end of year date (December 31st) to review the year.

I find it interesting that only some holidays have the “Eve” addition as in Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. Christmas is a religious holiday and New Year’s Day is an observation of time.

I suppose one could say eve on the day prior to any holiday and it would be an accurate statement.

According to ChatGPT the reason some holidays have an eve and others do not is the preparation that goes into various holidays versus the mere recognition of a concept or event.

The holidays that often include a planned gathering have an “Eve” for example thanksgiving (No official Eve) and Christmas (Eve being a national holiday) have an expectation of a planned gathering.

A holiday like President’s Day or Flag Day usually aren’t associated with a cultural planned gathering.

The official reason in my opinion why some holidays either have an “Eve” or not is the agreement to maintain the tradition of those before us.

In my lifetime some holidays have been added to the calendar and others have been removed or renamed.

The concept of a holiday is itself an agreement of something that the belief it deserves recognition and to observe that reason of significance by the people of the land.

I like New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day for reasons that have to do with my own life. My past, present and future are all considered with the encouragement of those holidays and the reminder of everyone else also has a past, present and future.

What about New Year’s Eve do you enjoy?

GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

GUITARA = “GUITAR” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I am starting a new series for our blog that will be incorporating live music.

The idea for today is to capture with my phone a recording of me playing guitar.

What I am going to do is write a “Riff” which in guitar lingo means an idea. I am a guitar Noodler. Noodling on a guitar is playing the guitar with the only intention being playing the guitar and not any specific music. I plan on practicing more than noodling in 2025.

I will include more music in future post that I will write on the day the post goes live.

I remember my dad (your grandpa) playing guitar growing up and I ended up learning how to play guitar myself. Maybe you will end up learning an instrument. I hope you do.

Here is the riff below :
