  • Trying Contentment

    Whew. This is a late one, but I wanted to get a couple thoughts down. I’ve been trying to foster contentment in my life lately as a form of mindfulness.

  • Friday Fiction

    I missed yesterday, but that’s okay. I’ve been on a pretty good streak otherwise, though I’m bummed the streak is broken.

    Hello! My name is Kyle Battle, and I could write to you a number of things about my resume or qualifications, but we’ll get to that. I have decided to challenge myself by warming up my writing every day with a blog post. These are little tricks that help me to more consistently practice the…
