I'm super excited about my new Patreon campaign. Check it out! patreon.com/ralphcovert

What adventure will today bring? Life is what we make it, a journey of choices. Choose passion. Choose creativity. Choose life. Start today.

Ice is water pretending to be stone. Be ice. Be stone. Be yourself. Be happy. Be sad. Most important — just be. You are alive today. Live.

My cup is half full… of light. It’s filled to the brim with possibilities. There’s a little coffee in there as well, of course. Shadow and light; happiness and sorrow; grief and joy. Life is full of contrasts. Embrace them. May your day be full of experiences you savor.

The journey starts with the shadow we cast into the future. The adventure is daring to go there.

Still life from a life in motion. No matter the chaos, take time to love, to be loved, and to savor the experience of today. This moment is the only one we have — everything else will work itself out. You’ve got this.

Simple pleasures. I bought this gaya melon at a local Korean market. Yum!

Savor the sweet, the tart, and the music in the background.

As an artist, one raises children of artists. Suddenly many things now make sense. Enjoy your day.

Full disclosure. 🤷‍♂️

We visited Jayme in August on their anniversary. As we gather today with family, I’m mindful of all those we’ve all lost, and thankful to be here celebrating life. I feel blessed to make music that I can share with all of you, and grateful for all the love that surrounds me.

Ganesh is the Hindu god of removing obstacles and the patron of learning. In my pantheistic philosophy I also like to think of him as rioitously dancing in celebration of life. May your day today be free of obstacles, full of wisdom, and bursting with joy.

Obstacles occur and tragedies happen, but they’re not personal and you can’t control them. What you can control is the most personal part of all — how you choose to experience them. Is your life a commute or an adventure? I’m choosing adventure. Bring on the obstacles!

There is no IRA or savings account for time. Life is sweet, but finite. We have now. Savor the moments you have while you’re in them, and choose to use your time for what makes you happiest. Your life is in your hands.

Are my positive posts are because I’m quietly struggling? Nope. I’m genuinely grateful to be alive for another amazing day. I mean, we’re all quietly struggling, but it’s nice to be reminded that we can savor every gnarly, knotty, imperfect moment. Carpe diem, my friends.

Remember not to confuse the shadow you see with the person you are. Happiness comes from within.

People debate whether the glass is half full or half empty. Why are they worrying about the glass, when most of the world is outside of it? Live. Your. Life. All of it.

The secret sauce is that good choices have consequences as well. I choose happiness.

You are the joy you inspire.

The hardest part of self-love is letting go so you can love yourself.
