I think there’s a good chance that I have a tendency to pray for me more than I pray for you. I know, I know. It’s totally selfish. And I don’t feel good about it. But, hey, at least I’m … Continued here
Oh yeah. You better believe I’m gettin’ my fair share. And I don’t care how many rich people have to ante up till I get it. Because I’m an American. And I want my piece of the American dream. I … Continued here
I remember when, back in 1998, a renowned neurosurgeon told Elgielene and me to “get your affairs in order.” Have you ever been told that? It’s like somebody just dropped a heavy, dark blanket over your head. And I’ll get … Continued here
Why would somebody use the phrase, “whispers in the wind?” I’d say it’s usually to illustrate futility or loss. And I’d also say, it’s an ideal way to get that point across. Whispers in the wind have no chance of … Continued here
Probably most everybody has been affected by this at least once. I have. And I’m talkin’ about what others have said about you. And how you’ve been negatively affected by it. I’m grateful, to my Dad, for giving me some … Continued here
It’s March 17, 2023 as I write this. So, here’s an Irish toast for ya. “May your day be touched by a bit of Irish luck, brightened by a song in your heart and warmed by the smiles of the … Continued here
As I scrolled through some information on the www this morning, I discovered that today (March 13, 2023) is K9 Veterans Day. And first, I gotta say I didn’t know there was such a day. Secondly, it makes perfect sense … Continued here
The movies out now are mostly total junk. And I know they don’t, as a rule, cater to guys, like me, who prefer to be entertained and encouraged. Because, apparently, most people out there in the wide world would rather … Continued here
Well, depending on who you source, the meteorological spring for 2023 has begun. Because, from what I discovered, it starts right around the first of March, here in the Northern Hemisphere. And that’s because temperatures are, well, spring like. But … Continued here
Imagine seeing an angel with six wings. And, as you look closely, you see the angel uses two of them to cover his face, two of them to cover his feet, and two of them to fly. Pretty cool. And … Continued here
Even people who say they’re all about love and acceptance hate me. They’d never admit it. But they do. A few years ago I shared an article and a song about the sanctity of life. And I mentioned that many … Continued here
You can find differing opinions and evidence about which day is the actual first day of the week. Without trying I’ve already seen conflicting opinions. And, not surprisingly, some people get more than a little upset when you disagree with … Continued here
Some are more important than others. And some have little to no consequences. But some can make you stop in your tracks. Because you realize the choice you make today could change your whole life. And there’s no choice that … Continued here
The butterfly effect and chaos theory originated in hopeless minds. There. I said it. And it’s up to you to convince me I’m wrong. Otherwise, I’m right. But just because those minds were hopeless doesn’t mean there’s not an infinite … Continued here
Visionaries dream. And the best visionaries understand the need for dreams to change, to ebb and flow. But they also know how the dreams that remain can make the world a better place. Take this one for example. A well-known … Continued here
Here’s another one of those connections I mentioned recently. This time it’s a very slight connection between the ten lords a leaping you’re hearing everywhere you go right now, and a poet. He’s not the poet who wrote “ten lords … Continued here
