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 Story to Share
It's been six months since I have written anything. Some of that's due to writer's block which I get on occasion and some of it's because life simply happens to steal all of your time. Honestly though, the greater hindrance for me has been related to two themes. The first being that I have some … Continue reading A Story to Share
Life Lesson Series – Listening
I originally posted this back in December but thought it was worth a re-post for this series. This is one life lesson that is very much a learned skill and discipline.

Life Lesson 2 – Serving continued

Ok, that was a little sobering to actually type out but being … Continue reading Life Lesson 2 – Serving continued

Living and Leaving a Legacy

Behind the Glasses (cover up)
So, my Monday started out less than stellar this morning as I awoke to my left eyelid swollen so bad that I couldn't open my eye. It started swelling yesterday and consensus of those not in the medical field is that I have a sty.
