MEDIUM… Crash and burn or here to stay?
WHATS BEING WRITTEN: Without boring you all with how long I have been writing on Medium and what I have accomplished thus far and so on and so forth. I will be going straight into what I have mentioned previously. Is Medium here to stay or is it ending? I truly have no idea and to be honest I am very confused with all the stories I am reading regarding them stating that medium is no longer the place to be. There have been multiple articles that have been written by other Medium members with similar titles such as “Is this the end of Medium”, “Medium coming to an end”, “Medium is not the place to publish your stories”. Members have even went as far as posting screen shots of their twitter or exchanges with other writers proclaiming their departure.

What is Your Glorious Purpose?
Loki on Disney Plus is a bit of a mind trip of a series. I recently finished watching season 1. While I still think Wandavision is the superior series, I can see the appeal; Loki has a real Dr. Who-meets-Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy vibe that’s sure to attract its fair share of fans.

Winning is A Decision
Winning is a journey not too many people want to start and many never do. With that there are also people who think they’ve started and have been stuck in an illusion their whole lives. We all know the story of the three little pigs, right? The story starts out with three pigs in three different houses living in harmony. The first pig has a house built by straw the second twigs and the third brick. Randomly one day a big and (relatively bad) wolf comes along and tries to eat them. He blows both their houses down except for the third pig because his house was strong enough to withstand the wolfs powerful winds and the moral of the story is dependent on who you had teaching you. One being friendship and how the power of having reliable friends can come in handy in times of struggle, but if the wolf represents calamity in the world and the houses represent how prepared we are for it then the moral becomes more about building yourself up to be so strong that nothing can move you. However, in reference to winning there can be a different perspective all together. For example, imagine the pigs don’t know each other at all. They each build their respective houses and go about their days as usual, and the wolf instead of being “big and bad” is seen as a regular wolf and like regular wolves eating other animals is normal as its more for survival and not being subjectively mean. He still stumbles upon all three pigs individually and for the purpose of the story line he still blows their houses down. Now the first pig that built his house out of straw is completely confident that the wolf is not capable of blowing his house down. Straw might have been the only thing in his area, he might not know much about the strength of wolves we don’t know for certain all we know is he built his house out of straw. Straw is the weakest material in the story, so we know that he was done the fastest between the three pigs. With such speed he was able to enjoy the fruits of his labor quicker much like instant gratification. Without any thought of what could potentially harm him, or what the best material was around him he would proceed to build something that was sufficient for the needs he was thinking about presently like shelter, warmth, and stability. This leaves him open for an opportunistic wolf that appears on the scene hungry and as quickly as the pig built his home the wolf just as quickly blows it down and feasts on the pig.

Being Gentle On Myself Means Following Navy SEAL Training. First Place in Sleep Resolution Challenge.
It's funny how in growing older, you're always searching for the next milestone, the next "big kid" moment: later bedtimes, later curfew, the ability to spend on what you want, the freedom to eat what you want—the opportunity to literally take a bite of forbidden fruit roll-ups instead of broccoli.
