Today's Spark
Fake friends are just attracted to the mysterious, But they disappear when they think they've "figured" you out. When they think they know what you are all about.
by Innocent Mwatsikesimbe — from This Is My Life, chapter 8
A lesson from this Spark: Why do some friendships fade once the novelty is gone?
A little further
What can I actually control when life feels uncertain?
Separate what you can choose from what you can influence and what is outside your control.
How can you be there when you cannot fix the problem?
Your time and attention can help a friend feel less alone, even when you cannot solve their problem.
Why does starting feel harder than continuing?
One small action can make a daunting task feel less like a whole mountain of work.
Life lessons from a writing life
Lessons I've learned, and am still learning, in more than twenty books. Each kept with the work it came from.

Sparks become short videos on Instagram, YouTube and Facebook. Everything there starts as writing here.
