I mentioned a couple of days ago that I've recommitted myself to take care of both, my physical and spiritual health. And yesterday I posted an update in regards to the physical side of things and today I thought I would share a little about the spiritual component of my life. Let's be clear. Out … Continue reading The Spiritual Side

A failure and Recommitment
So, for those of you who have followed me for some time know that since April of 2018, I have committed myself to working out consistently, eating better (most of the time) and training to compete in various sports such as Triathlons and Cycling. I started training for triathlons about this time last year although … Continue reading A failure and Recommitment
Time Out
I don't remember now if it was November or December but in one of those months I decided to take on a new challenge and enter the world of triathlons. It's not necessarily the cheapest sport to take up but over time I've acquired the necessary items to participate. I've been cycling for several years … Continue reading Time Out
Life Lesson 3 – Listening
This is one life lesson that is very much a learned skill and discipline. Ask yourself, How often do you truly listen to the world around you? When in conversation how often do you truly engage the person and listen to what they are telling you? More times than not, I catch myself thinking of … Continue reading Life Lesson 3 – Listening
Life Lesson 2 – Serving continued
I ended the last post saying that Love was another component to serving others. I have not always had a desire to serve others.

Why is it that the things that taste the best are the worst for you and vice versa? Why is Taylor Swift nominated for best female … Continue reading Why bother?
Living and Leaving a Legacy
I recently had the honor of speaking at a funeral to celebrate the life of one of the greatest men I have ever known. Below is a copy of my preparation draft leading up to that day. I decided to post it as a blog post because, outside of my father, no other person apart … Continue reading Living and Leaving a Legacy
Life Pause
I am experiencing what I am calling a "Life Pause". Within the last month or so, my life has been filled with some incredible highs and not incredible lows but some lows none the less. If you have followed my blog for any length of time, you know that last month I had the incredible … Continue reading Life Pause
An Olympic Commitment
I, like a lot of people, love the olympics and every 4 years become a huge fan of sports I haven't watched since the last olympics. As a friend of mine said recently - "only during the olympics do you hear somebody ask; so what are the rules in water polo?" As fans we only … Continue reading An Olympic Commitment
