Fifteen years of marriage ends and the calendar still asks for goals. Alan Warmke writes from that raw rebuild: tears dried into scars, a midlife crisis he names without polish, and a day blogging challenge that forces him to show up again after months of silence.
New year posts list change and action when default Alan would rather blame. Space Station writing returns to Skylab stamps he collected as a kid and the awe that still sits beside modern station news. Empower Network reloaded pieces admit magazine ads, failed eBay runs, thin early sites, and the stubborn habit of trying another path. Last Samurai notes pull film moments that hit spiritual self examination after the story wrecked his expectations. Happier life lists start from admitting a brutal year was partly his own mindset.
Open a post if private loss and online work share the same desk. He will not pretend the rebuild is neat. Goals, film lessons, and space memory meet a peer still dusting off and writing anyway.
