I think that those porch talks, the Instagram lives were kind of essential in that process because I think that at the time, I was unwilling to do outdoor comedy or drive-in comedy or zoom comedy, I just, I couldn’t because it just seemed too difficult and I didn’t need that aggravation and I didn’t see it as a way to to process or create, i think that the Instagram lives became essential in me engaging with an audience of people that were watching, and so I was in a zone where I was putting stuff out in the world for people and doing it much like I do comedy.

In response to Biden's energy policy: Senator John Kennedy then gave a folksy analogy to describe Biden’s energy policy: “Ainsley, I used to have a beagle named Roger. And Roger was a rascal. About every two weeks, Roger would run off. He’d always come back but about half the time he’d come back dragging roadkill that he would hide under my back porch. President Biden’s energy policy looks like and smells like something Roger used to keep under my back porch.”

I would just sit out on the porch and watch their yard, where the girls used to play, the yard began to deteriorate, and the weeds grew up. The house also deteriorated. There was just a real sense of sadness. Many people in the town would leave things on the porch and cry. And then so many people started to drive by the house and just look or take pictures. One time, I even heard somebody call Shanann’s name. I looked out and there was a man in a car yelling out for her several times. This was over a year later. But for whatever reason, he thought Chris Watts was still held up in the house or something.

My son said that if it were Chris Watts, Chris Watts would have been looking everywhere, he would have been studying every second of any home cameras looking for any single clue – and I agree with him, chris just appeared uncomfortable. And even when he gave interviews on his porch, there was just a total lack of emotion. It was just offsetting. I think a lot of people saw that but could n’t believe it. I can understand being in shock, but there has to be some emotion there in losing Chris Watts.

I saw him on his porch and said, ‘ Good morning, ’ he turned around and looked at me like I had no business speaking to him. I thought it was really odd. It’s one thing if you’re shy, but he really gave me this look, like, ‘ Why are you talking to me ? ’ You certainly do n’t expect someone to react that way over a simple hello. But no one could have possibly anticipated what happened afterward.

One time, someone left two Happy Meals for the girls on the porch. Some were compelled to make contact with Chris Watts. It was incredibly disturbing. And there has been so much speculation in the YouTube community. They even call it ‘ Watts Island, ’ where they have these ongoing speculations about the case and dissect every portion of it. I felt very sad when Shanann’s dad had to fly all the way to Colorado just to tell people to stop harassing Chris Watts after having gone through so much. There was just a lot of negative energy.

Set yourself up for success by preparing a sacred space to set the tone for your practice, and it's helpful to establish some level of consistency. For some, that means taking time during their commute to meditate and journal. For others, that means sitting on the back porch early in the morning or meditating for a few minutes on the couch. Still others will have a sacred corner with an altar, including an image of Christ, a few candles, and a place to store your journal.

I don't know what's better than that.
