Thinking Out Loud

I'm back. For now. Not sure this is the best platform for my thoughts. It totally works if I don't really care about anyone reading my words, ever. But if I want what I write to be read, then I should consider publishing where there is traffic. I'm thinking Quora, Medium, Reddit, Amazon ebooks, etc.  I don't know that anything I'm saying is "profound," but I do feel that many could benefit from what I'm learning.

The title is Coming Home for two reasons: 1) The kids and I have been singing Thomas Jefferson's coming home. . . from Hamilton  all day and that is what was running through my mind as I sat down to write. 2) I feel like I'm coming home after spending a week away from my daily blog. My mind has been itching to puzzle out some of my deep thoughts on digital paper. :) I'm going to break my thoughts into daily posts even though I didn't write them daily.

I'm going to cover psychedelics and tripping, death, dehumanization, belonging vs. fitting in, Braving the Wilderness, Desire, Be Here Now, and Vibrations. Buckle up baby, I'm coming home!
