Fighting the good fight

Posted on November 12, 2020 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

So, I came close to making things in life a bit more difficult for myself. Again. See, in my constant quest to balance my dopamine levels (something my doctor has said is a bit tougher for me than for others) I frequently band wagon onto whatever sounds good in the moment. Bored? Try archery! Buy … Continue reading →

Where the hell…

Posted on October 9, 2020 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

I’m wondering where something went to. Perhaps it is a marker of age, and perhaps everyone reaches this point at one time or another. But I’m wondering where it went. First off, my sense of security is all sorts of lost. I have given up on finding it anytime soon, kind of like when I … Continue reading →

Stop whining, you are getting old

Posted on January 21, 2020 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

I recently had a(nother) birthday, and like many people my age I had a serious reflective moment and reality check. One in which I was honest with myself, and saw my future spread before me in a cascade of images, all of which pointed to the same reality… I am on the downhill slope to … Continue reading →

My sons scare the crap out of me

Posted on February 27, 2018 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

The two young men I share my house with are insane. One is crazily self conscious and, at the same time, Senor BossyAss, and the other is a mildly sweeter version of the Tasmanian Devil. The first is clingy and seeking of affirmation, and the second is independent to an extent that is truthfully a … Continue reading →

Letting it all (hang) out

Posted on March 23, 2017 by Jesse J Hinds • 1 Comment

I have been thinking a lot recently of letting things go. Stuff around the house, feelings about past events in life, fear- you know, the little things in life. I have been reading (or listening to the audiobook of) Letting Go: The Pathway Of Surrender by David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D. The title almost put me … Continue reading →

January, the most dangerous of months…

Posted on January 12, 2017 by Jesse J Hinds • 1 Comment

January. A new year stretches before us, chock full of hopes and fears, and this is of course the year that I will finally “get healthy!” The first few days of the new year always feel like new sheets on the bed. There is a crispness, a smooth chill, and a tautness to the start of … Continue reading →

A bit about ice water.

Posted on October 27, 2016 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

So the day before the last post published I almost pulled it. Instead I had a decent case of the screwits and left it alone, because who doesn’t appreciate some self-indulgent public processing from time to time? This week I returned to prepping for my first open water swim this spring. It involves ice water … Continue reading →

Running On The Ranch

Posted on July 28, 2016 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

I read Christopher McDougall’s Born To Run a few years ago after my split from my wife at the time. I had moved to a family friend’s house while things were sorted out. I spent a lot of time in those weeks reading. After starting Born To Run I bought a pair of 5 Fingers shoes … Continue reading →

Old friends and short visits

Posted on July 14, 2016 by Jesse J Hinds • Leave a comment

I haven’t been back in the water in a few weeks as I wait for the jelly population to recede. I have tried the pool a few times and even connected with a local masters swim group. But intimidation got the best of me. They all appear so much stronger in the water than I … Continue reading →
