One Thing at a Time

Obviously, things have been a little busy in the life of Mike lately. Actually, it’s not so much that things have been busy that’s kept me away from this blog, it’s the overwhelming number of considerations that have kept my mind occupied on things other than writing about being a survivor.

So, I haven’t had much to say about things, but lately I’ve been thinking that I need to stop letting my thoughts be preoccupied with things that may or may not occur. I can only do one thing at a time. I should only be focused on the one thing I’m doing. The rest will still be there, whether I spend time thinking about it or not, I should save my mental energy to work on what’s in front of me.

So, for tomorrow it’s work, then a wedding rehearsal dinner. Saturday will be finishing up packing for vacation before heading to my brother’s wedding. Sunday we’ll be hitting the road for vacation. There’s many other things that’ll be going on during that time, but we’ll worry about that when we get back. There are events to be enjoyed, and memories to be made. No sense ruining those worrying about something I can’t do anything about right now.

    It’s Sept. 21 2004. Three years ago at this time, the world was still recovering from 9/11, yet somehow life had moved on. Three years ago at this time, my own life had moved on, and another event was about to change my life. The two events will always be tied together in my mind,…

  • Dehumanization

    Back in November, as we were making our way around the Colosseum in Rome, I couldn’t help but think about the thousands of people who died in this arena. At the time, this was considered “entertainment” and was used to sate the mob of Rome. I began to think about our modern-day culture and what…
