True north

We all need a true north. A core belief that gets us through the dark moments. A moral compass when confronted with challenges of all shapes and sizes.  I have come to believe  it is a sense of personal meaning for how we spend our time here. It seems that contentment is a by product […]

Heaven

I remember when I was very young. My dad sat with me and said maybe this is heaven. Maybe where we are is heaven and we just have to embrace it. See it and live it. Maybe this is the Garden of Eden now. But our choices determine whether we recognize it or walk right […]

Passion

We have this one chance …as far as we know. This one opportunity to tell a story. Our choices then write that story on a daily basis.  Ever wonder why some never tell the story that is waiting to be told? Holding back? Fearful of the critics?  Yet each day the time is  running out. […]

I realized once again that the gift is fragile. Yet the body and spirit are amazing. We are the ultimate […]

Ageless

Ageless. Timeless. Each day stands alone. Each day holds the promise of a chance to replay the hand you have been dealt. You can carry anger, fear, defeat forward or let it go. It is your choice. Can you learn the lesson and then move forward or are you locked into the same lesson over […]

A question of character

It all comes down to a question of character. There is always the obstacle. There is always the fall. There is always a failure somewhere along the journey. But then even in moments of success and clarity when the hurdle is overcome, it is a question of character. The honorable, decent, gracious manner and style […]
