Perhaps I Still am The Grey Wayfarer after All.
Happy Mani’s Day! I have been gone a while – again. But I guess, in some regards, success of a limited kind lulled me into a false sense of security. But Yesterday hit me with a lot of sudden anxiety and the depression that follows. It’s been building, but I have always, until now, been able to ignore it or put it on hold, so to speak. The Grey has long been my relabeling of a condition that I…

"Fearful Heart" - A Poem
Fearful Heart – A Poem by Ed Raby, Sr. Was I ever loved?Maybe I was—but I don’t know.In the end, the feeling that I was lovedSeemed an illusion,A magician’s sleight of hand. The first time, I understoodThe departed’s why.I loved her—She couldn’t find the lover’s sigh. The second time was long,Accompanied by wedding bells.But I saw no concern for meIn my children’s mother’s eyes. The third…
Wayfarer's Journal Post - June 26, 2025
Happy Saturn’s Day! I have gone around and around about how to handle these journal posts. I don’t want to just drop them every other day like last time, as it was a constant justification to just change my plans every time I did a journal post. At the same time, they were a constant reminder of the plan I had and what I needed to do with my life, and they motivated me to do some things even if…
"Skipping Stones" - A Poem
AI Image Happy Mani’s Day! As a toddler boy, I stood in awe of my Dad skipping stones. As a small boy, my dad taught me to skip stones As a larger boy, I skipped stones while my Dad watched As a teenage boy, I skipped stones to get away from my Dad As a young man, I had no time to skip stones; more important things to do. As a dating man, I skipped stones after the lover’s embrace As a…
The Grey Mage - Episode 1 - The Current State of Affairs
AI Image Happy Day! The Grey Mage’s Journal – June 18, 2025 It’s been a while since I have written in my journal, but I feel that things are getting interesting, to say the least. So, it may be time to start chronicling my life experiences again for the sake of posterity. But perhaps an update is in order, as my last entry was on the last day of 2019, between COVID and a few other things that…
So What Will I Be Writing Here?
AI Image Happy Woden’s (Odin’s) Day! Coming back after such a long hiatus has actually been a wonderful feeling for me. But at the same time, it leaves many questions for you, the gentle reader, and me. Mostly, what am I going to write now that I am back? In the past, this was an everyday blog with different styles or topics of posts for each day, but I no longer think I want to do that. I…

Self-Discipline and Details
Happy Freya’s Day! This last month has been one of reflection on what my future holds and no matter what type of beliefs you have about the future, it falls to the person to either just let things roll or develop the habits and discipline to get where you want to go. I have had numerous false starts in life. Ministry and Teaching in the Public Schools among them. Now I am looking at things as a…

Pause, Reset, Re-Align, Restore
Happy Day! My struggles have always been easier when I have routine and discipline. The problem is that my hypersensitivity can rob me of that when my nervous system gets overloaded and then depression and anxiety can set in. For the last month, I have realized that the best time for me to establish routine and discipline is fall through spring. Summer is my challenge with all the sensory…

"Lone Wolf" - A Poem
Happy Freya’s Day! “Like a Wolf I am drawn to the pack But I walk alone Outside its embrace I am and am not Part of the pack I watch over them High on the hill Safe in my sight they will be, I stand alone to be stronger Stronger than the pack Stronger for the pack Loneliness is the price I pay So they can be free So Lone Wolf I stay and howl alone in Luna’s face Until THE…

Focusing My Writing
Happy Freya’s Day! So what is going well? I am getting up and getting to the gym before work every day and haven’t missed a workout since I made this change. My YouTube Channel recently got monetized at least with memberships, superchat. 1000 subscribers and I am making regular content. Enough watch hours in the near future and I could have ad revenue as well. Nice side hustle in the…

Overreaching, Autism, and Essentialism
Happy Odin’s Day! I now know Why I struggle with goals so much. In short, I set way too many and then I fail at all but a few. I overreach a lot. Take this blog for instance. There was a time when I would post pretty much every day. It was one of my goals, but I had many others at the time, and they suffered. So I switched goals and tried to keep the goal of posting regularly up, and then it…

Story Idea - Red Riding Hood Revised
Happy Odin’s Day! Alright, I am moving forward with things a little better. I know my routines work. The real issue now is habit and execution. That can take soem time so be patient. Thank you. I have had the idea before of taking fairy tales and giving them a modern and adult twist before but the picture above re-sparked an idea I have had before particularly with Little Red Riding Hood. If…

My Three Writing Projects
Happy Mani’s Day! I want to elaborate on my three many writing projects at present to clarify my own thinking about them. So sorry for the info post again, but creativity is in the works. My first project is regular writing on this blog. But the change is going to be that this blog is now my outlet for the “What do I feel like writing today” itch. My other two projects have very specific…

Getting Back to Writing with a Better Plan
Happy Freya’s Day! I want to, first of all, thank everyone for being patient and for your understanding as I struggle with my new understanding of myself. The old GI Joe cartoon used to say: “Knowing is half the battle”. The high probability that I have autism has been a major revelation of knowledge. How affects me is in some ways obvious and in others not so much. The real question is “Now…

Why I Have Been Gone - Autistic Burnout?
Happy Tyr’s Day! If you also subscribe to my Youtube Channel Simple Life Philosophy, you already know that in therapy I discovered that I could be on the autistic spectrum. This has been a very revealing explanation of my past problems and struggles with what we know around here as The Grey. Depression. Depression is a symptom of a more significant issue with my nervous system, which may be…
