Every year at Christmas time there are certain movies my wife and I like to watch. These movies may not necessary be about Christmas (though the movies has Christmas time in it), but they carry a core message about life. One of these movies is, While you were Sleeping with Sandra Bullock. Call me sentimental, […]
Ooooo, the beautiful rainbow towering high above the earth with its pretty colors stretch out in the sky. A sight which is not seen everyday. For me, it’s funny how something so beautiful can be so misrepresented. Take for example the magical notion of “the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow”, or […]
A while back I worked with a gal who, in my opinion is the nicest person I’ve ever met. I like to show up 15-20 minutes early for work. During that time the office is very quiet, but it wasn’t long until I would hear her traveling down the hallway greeting everyone along the way. […]
A good friend of mine told me a story of how him and his dad would pack their lunches with sandwiches and Chick-O-Sticks, and then go fishing for the day. I don’t know why, but now when I see Chick-O-Sticks in the store it reminds me of my friend and his dad spending time fishing […]
A lot of people may not know, but I am somewhat passionate about patriotism. I love studying our American heritage. The struggles, the victories, the people who sacrificed to make this country what it is today. One of the dangers in prosperity is we tend to forget the sacrifices which were made for us. In […]
Ugh! Another birthday… Several people I know made a big deal about turning 40. I didn’t seem to mind, but now that I’m in my 50’s, well that’s a different story! It seems like everyday I wake up to some ailment in my body and I don’t seem to have the energy like I once […]
I’ve heard this repeated a few times in my life “If I knew then, what I know now, things would be a lot different“. Man this is so true! If I could go back to my twenties, knowing what I know now, I’d definitely would make some changes. Don’t get me wrong, our experiences we […]
I mention in a marriage conference one time, some secular study on human behavior. In a round about way, I was then very politely rebuked for sharing such information and told our views should only come from the Bible. I totally agree, our foundation for learning of life should originate from the Bible, but that’s not going […]
In my 30 plus years of working, I’ve had many managers in various jobs. Recently I heard this quote, People never quit their jobs, they quit their managers. Having once been a manager for 8 years I can most assuredly say there is a lot of truth in this quote. Unfortunately, I hate to admit, I […]
One of my favorite men in the Bible is King Solomon. Now, when someone mentions his name, almost instantly people think of the many wives and concubines he had. Yes, Solomon messed up, but haven’t we all messed up in some way or another? I heard an old saying “If you look for the bad […]
