I’ve been using Romans Ch. 5 as a study guide, looking into my personal character, beliefs, and manliness. Focusing on Verses 1 thru 5. And drilling down on the specific verses, starting with the end of verse 2, 3 and 4. “And we rejoice in…
Glass Ceilings vs. Soap Bubbles
One… you place your hands on it and feel instant resistance to any forward movement. The other… you can look at it with a smile, and when you get a sense of wonderment and elation, washed over with a sense of hope… it bursts! I’m…
How To Navigate Towards Your Goal
I’m finding, the success books are right, when it comes to clearly defining your goal… the clearer, the better. Once ancient mariners figured out The North Star… it was game on for world exploration. At one point in my work career a motorcycle was my…
Coffee? No, Put The Blame On
I want to blame something for my current state of inability to gain any momentum with my writing. Or what I perceive to be an inability at the moment. A part of me is also avoiding something… not sure what exactly… I feel if I…

What We See, What We Say, and What We Do… are Contrary and Incongruent
That’s a lot of words that just mean “things are not lining up.” I’ve learned some things so far this year, about physical pain, heart ache, and spiritual understanding. It’s all good… because I choose it to be. We see baseball played on a diamond;…
