Clarity, Emotions, Hanging In There, The Right Stuff

CRAZY

  A few days ago I posted a Waylon Jennings quote that I love. “I may be crazy, but it keeps me from going insane.” It started me thinking about the difference between crazy and insane. I have a pretty good working knowledge of both conditions.  I’ve done some crazy ass things in my life.  Have I experienced insanity? When I got sober I was told that a “power greater than myself could restore me to sanity.” The implication being… Read More

Happiness, Living Fully, The Right Stuff

Addictions, Risk, The Right Stuff
