Risk taking and the coffin on the horizon
A few months ago I signed up for a daily “newsletter.” This guy, this poet George Bilgere emails a poem he loves and then says a few words about why he picked it. And so every day for months now I’ve started each day with a poem, and besides dogs, I think it’s the best thing to happen to me in the last year.
I’m not a poetry person. I would say that 95% of the poems I read, I either don’t understand, don’t like, or both. And yet I still keep reading a lot of poetry because the other 5% make it worth it. But for some reason this guy George gets me. We are on the same wavelength.
The poems he sends are approachable, digestible by my middling intellect, but no less meaningful in the way that poetry can cut right through you and reveal something meaningful in just a few words. Anyway, his newsletter is called poetry town, with George Bilgere. A few of my favorites from the last few months have been The Coyote, by Alan Feldman; Fix, by Alicia Suskin Ostriker; a song in the front yard, by Gwendolyn Brooks; and Wild Turkeys, by Lawrence Kessenich.
Otherwise, not much is happening in my life besides that I’ve been so busy and stressed at work the last few months that I’ve wanted at times to blow up my life (which is barely held together in any case) and quit my job and hit the road and head to Mexico and then deep into South America and never look back. I’ve been skipping the gym and skipping my personal writing because I’ve been too exhausted to do either, which has only made everything worse.
So the other day, instead of exploding, I signed up to do a reading at an open mic event this June. Terrified isn’t quite the word for how I’m feeling about it, but it will be a first for adult me, though back in grade school we had to read out loud in class (which also terrified me).
As I’ve gotten older, especially within the last few years, I’ve made a direct effort to face some of my fears, like spiders and public speaking, though ideally not both simultaneously. I think this is just one of the many thrilling benefits of the increasing weight of mortality as one ages—the now-or-never risk-taking that comes from the contemplation of the coffin on the horizon.
My long-term goal for the past few years has been to take an improv class, and someday to get on stage and try to do stand-up comedy, which I will do in secret should it ever happen, probably in a town where no one knows me, a drifter passing through who no one in town has ever seen before and who they hope they will never see again after what transpires. But that is still far down the road.
The improv class has been on my radar for a couple years or more now as a thing I intend to do but never get around to doing, and so, baby steps. Foot in the door. Reading aloud to a small crowd who may judge me in the harsh stage light is the first step.
My thought is that this will begin to build my public-speaking courage, and after a few of these experiences, I’ll sign up for that improv class and become more comfortable without a script in my hand. Then I will someday put the storytelling and the improv together and get on a stage and tell a story or jokes that are perhaps rehearsed but not entirely memorized. And after I do that, I think I’ll go skydiving, because someday the chute won’t open for all of us. And when I hit the ground, I want to hit the ground unafraid.

💧🤖 Ah, the classic "AI is coming for your #job and your water" argument, now with extra hyperlinks and a side of California's #water woes! Because what we really need is a dissertation-length article to tell us that #AI isn't stealing as much water as we thought. 🌊📉 Guess the #robots are too busy #vacuuming our floors to drain our reservoirs! 😂

The insecurities…
...fueled by the trauma of the past... 🧸 I used to be someone who was rather sure of herself. If I knew something, then I knew it 💯 and I would go with that as strongly as I could. But, I was/am different. My reasoning didn't follow the "rules", it went it's own way. And, what annoyed people most about that, was that even though I didn't follow their rules, and they struggled to understand my logic, but my results were sound. But... They could not "just" admit that. Nope... I didn't make any sense, my reasoning was off, so how could my results every be right? Or, to make things worse at times, how could my results be even better than theirs? 🤔 I never understood why people were so silly, as in why they could not understand my logic. But then, because I could not understand theirs, it was all too easy to start believing them when they told me all sorts of negative things about me. And, because many people felt the need to "correct" me, it must mean that I actually was doing things wrong, and I was too stupid to do things the right way... 😢 […]https://cynnisblog.wordpress.com/2026/05/01/the-insecurities/

Today I learned that my #doctor passed away.
He was ~50, which is no age at all.
I did not know him personally, but I knew him as someone who made a difference. For over 15 years, he was my doctor, and every visit felt safe.He was calm, kind and deeply knowledgeable. He took away my #fears, explained everything patiently and was always gentle, even during difficult examinations.
You rarely find someone like that. He was one of those people who simply radiate something good, something reassuring, without even trying.
It hurts to know that someone so decent is gone. And it hurts to know I have lost not just a doctor, but someone whose presence I quietly trusted.
This is my way of saying #goodbye. Maybe he can read it, wherever he is now.
Rest in peace Dr. J.L.
