“Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak.” I love that quote, with the little twist. Because there’s more than just a little ring of truth to it. Yeah bright beginnings don’t always lead where you think they will. Matter of fact: We ALL had bright beginnings. You were born with a life of bright possibilities ahead … The rest of the story…

I bet you can remember this dialogue from “Back To The Future.” Doc tells Marty, “If we don’t fix this, you may never get back home!” And Marty answers, “Whoa, Doc, this is heavy!” Then, Doc, being a logical thinker, replies, “Weight has nothing to do with it, Marty.” Fun stuff. Back when they still made movies to be fun. But I didn’t bring this up to talk … The rest of the story…
Ask yourself this question right now. “Am I doing right now?” Pardon me? What’d you say? You think it doesn’t sound like a question. Oops. You’re kinda right. I forgot one little swoop of punctuation. I meant to say, ask yourself this question: “Am I doing right, now?” And if you are, ask yourself why. Yeah, you read that right. If you’re doing right, … The rest of the story…
Joel Osteen is a fool. He’s not the only fool. Not by a long shot. But he’s one of the biggest. Because he’s in charge of one of the biggest churches in America. And he’s telling (translate that to selling) lies. And one of the biggest lies is found in the title of his “bestselling book,” Your Best Life Now. Breaking News! You do … The rest of the story…
In your own mind, do you think you can truly understand the universe? And I mean all its vastness, emptiness, and mysteries? I don’t believe you can. Because, in your own mind, there’s a tendency toward imagination. Imagination is great. I love to use it to create word pictures. But, when you spend too much time in your own mind, it can lead to … The rest of the story…
I read an article on LinkedIn that was so incredibly stupid. And part of the stupidity is how the article was high in the feed of a platform (supposedly) focused on business. Why was the article stupid? Because it glorified black men. And that’s a huge part of the problem with so-called “social justice warriors.” They do what the claim to hate. One of … The rest of the story…
News alert! Equality is a myth. You and I are not equal. And no one else is your equal either. Or mine. And we will never be equal. NEVER. And that’s not a bad thing. I’ve worked a lot of different jobs in my time here on planet Earth. The one vocation that stuck was singer songwriter. I’ve driven trucks, forklifts, tractors, motorcycles, all … The rest of the story…
I got into a discussion, which quickly degraded into something I hadn’t seen coming. And it was a talk with someone I didn’t think would take things in such a negative direction. I won’t go into those details right now. But, after the scene was over, I thought back to an absolute truth test I posted exactly 11 years ago, today. I’m gonna share … The rest of the story…
Are you on the edge of a cliff in your life right now? I’ll bet you’re not reading this on the edge of a cliff… Not literally anyway. But do you get the sense you’re on the edge of disaster? Well, what’s the edge where you’re standing? Do you have a relationship about to crumble? Or, is there a financial crisis on the horizon? … The rest of the story…
I just read where Paul McCartney was fined £100 ($170) because he planted cannabis seeds and grew cannabis on his farm in Campbeltown, Scotland. That happened 49 years ago today, March 7. His “excuse” was that he got the seeds from some fans. And he didn’t know what they would grow. In an interview, after the trial, he said, “Well, we got a load of seeds, … The rest of the story…
