Accepting, Acceptance, Embracing

I didn’t realize the difference those three words could make. Sitting here thinking about who I was over five years ago, and where I was in an interesting thought exercise.  This was before many hard conversations with my wife.  This was before a world-wide pandemic.  This was before meeting hundreds of people I now consider … Continue reading Accepting, Acceptance, Embracing

Growth

Growth comes from trial.  Growth comes from pain.  We often don’t like it, and most often don’t enjoy it.  Rightfully so, it hurts.  Often though, we like the result or outcome of the growth.   I’m presently working to lose some weight, and part of that is being uncomfortable with not eating everything in sight.

Every diaper is different

Three different runs, with three different coaches, that all brought a similar message back to me.

300 pages and 200 posts

If you want to grow, familiarize yourself with being uncomfortable. It is in that space where we are outside of our comfort zone in which we can improve ourselves in all aspects of life.  When I began running and exercising everything hurt.  It was a continuation of running and exercising coupled with better eating and … Continue reading 300 pages and 200 posts

Diapers and Intimacy (there and back again)

A bit of a disclaimer: This is the part about being an ABDL that I have the hardest time with, and it is very hard for me to try and compose my thought enough where it feels coherent. My affinity for diapers is not primarily a kink, but I feel there may be an element … Continue reading Diapers and Intimacy (there and back again)
