This past year has been one of the best so far. Got to travel for the first time in 10 years and am financially stable (although still not great). I had the most crushing battle with depression for twenty years then discovered a medication combo (as well as therapy) that actually helps. I don't believe there's a true definition of recovery because this is a lifelong issue and mission but I finally feel closer to being a functional human and I'm proud that I didn't give up.

Not so much "finally got", but finally am getting backside tail slides back.
A few years ago I sprained my ankle really bad on a back tail and have been afraid to try them for a few years.
Finally started doing them again, even landed a few last sesh.
I'm a little out of practice so I never know if I'm going to come out regular or fakie, still don't have a a lot of control over them, but still feels good to land them again!

I had a great mindfulness skate session yesterday where I dropped every goal I had and concentrated on doing things that I felt like doing and stuff that just makes me happy. I've been pushing too hard lately because stress of every day life has crept into my sessions. It was fun to just do lines of simple stuff and cruise around and try some completely random stuff in between. Felt like I got inspired and there's more purpose than to just progress. Did Yin yoga after the sesh. Shin Sanbongi, Carl Shipman, Jovontae Turner and Magenta and Evisen videos on heavy rotation lately. Feels good.

Japan and Korea. Going back this year. Still doesn't feel real tbh. But yo now I'm a big advocate of not ever giving up on yourself. Obviously there's certain dreams we might have  that are so unrealistic we might have to let go but keeping on top of your mental health is paramount.

All wins are wins no matter how big or small. Big love everyone

Those sessions are crucial from time to time a good reset and reminder why we’re really doing this for. All my sessions have been like that the past 10 days or so because I’ve been racking up small injuries.

& then i strained a muscle in my back/neck last Saturday waking up over night. But it’s been feeling too good outside so i’ll just pull up on the cruiser board n do transition,a bunch of kickflips,heelflips, 50s n mannys lol mainly i’ll just film any homies trying to get a trick and smoke weed try n not hurt myself any further but it still makes for a great time

I forgot the joy of skating a cruiser board til i went to a show the other night and just drank tequila, smoked a bunch and skated inbetween sets (had so much fun i missed half a set haha)  I’ve never had that much fun skating alone

Fun bullshit sessions are imperative. As much as it feels good to progress I’m glad you caught yourself before getting lost in the sauce I feel like you’ll get everything you’ve been wanting next time you skate now hermano 🤝

Might have to add JT n Carl to my rotation… haven’t been watching any skate videos lately truthfully have been trying to not skate and just rest up and heal but I can’t help it this time of year especially
