Saw a man shouting crazy shit at people in Inman and decided to follow him to keep an eye on him. He approached a woman on the sidewalk and shoved her. I intervened immediately and my anger caused me to lose focus and before I realized it, the woman was gone.

You can decide, at any point, to make significant changes to your life. Sometimes, we get locked into patterns and positions that don’t serve us. Do you have patterns like that in your life? How can you escape them? It’s never too late to make things work for you.

My relationship with romance is fickle and often fragile. That said, I will always be romantic about how beautiful life is. The ebbs and the flows, the ups and the downs and the births and the deaths are as fascinating as they are inevitable.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
