It is time…especially with a new year fast approaching…to take stock of our lives and consider whether or not a change is needed. Ask yourself these questions: Are you happy with where you are at in life? Do you desire more in your life? Do you think you can change certain things? Are you willing and determined to succeed in…
The night before Christmas and all through the house…. not one light was blinking nor mistletoe hung…it was all quiet and still in the house. WHAT? Have you become a GRINCH? Are you out of your mind? You don’t celebrate the most beloved holiday ever known to man? The crowd roared with disbelief! With eyes that twinkled and a dimple…
Yep….so true. Everything that happens in your journey here on this side of the time realm….is all about perspective! How’s that you say? Well, how you view something, is how you will approach it. If you view something that happens to you as catastrophic…or devastating..than you will possibly sink into despair or depression. Falling into this trap and having this…
For anyone that has lived more than a few years….you get it. Time simply does not stand still – for anyone. And as time marches on, life changes, in so many ways. Valley’s and mountaintops, mud puddles and sinking pits, glorious campfires and devastating firestorms. All of these intermixed in what we call the journey of life. Now that it…
The story of life you say? Yes. I believe that one can discover the meaning of ‘life‘ inside the symbolism and history of this minor feast day….this historical event where a handful of determined, patriotic, God-fearing people overcame the struggles of an oppressive, tyrannical, ruling elite.

So….what’s in a cowboy hat?

Did it translate you into a totally different atmosphere? Did you stand a bit taller, lift your chin a bit higher? Well,…
Here we are again…mid-week ramblings. So as I catch my breath from the past weekend after having a really fun-time with family, I’m already looking forward to seeing them all again. The two great grandbabies are just sprouting up like weeds…and my grand daughters are not babies any longer either, they are turning into beautiful young women! How can this…
The calendar has rolled around to this Season of Lights….and I’m not talking about the red, yellow and green light strings hanging from all the rooftops right now. I’m talking about some inner light emanating from a few special candles in a menorah on my kitchen table. Being by myself, lighting candles by myself….has been a little disconcerting this year….
Yep……that’s what today feels like for me. Trying to get past the hump.Sometimes one just has to keep going … even if everything seems to be falling apart. And…while my advise to everyone who asks how to get out of one of those slump/hump days is to change your perspective. But then, as we all know, sometimes your own advise…
It is a new week…..or is it? It can be new … or it can be one more day in an infinite number of days with no change, no progress, nothing.
