I’ve mentioned our current generation as “Generation ADD” in previous blog articles. In the specific context which I mentioned the generation, it was written as a negative. However, I’ve realized that this generation is one where those with attention disorders are actually on the advantage, rather than at the disadvantage. I can only imagine some […]
The table of contents add another chapter to their pages. This time has come at last. Evolution may not be the way mankind came into existence, but I can assure you it happens in our lives on a day-to-day basis. Naturally, evolution is unnatural; we are given the choice to morph our lives into better […]
The clock hand chases towards the midnight hour. It will catch it for only a second. It will only be perfectly midnight for one second. Such is the pattern of our life, as we entertain moments of perfection that can only last for but a moment. A hot drink from Starbucks and my mind is […]
Regardless of your religious affiliations, political beliefs, or personal [in]adequacies, there’s a universal that must be accepted, en masse, by those who claim to be a part of the human race. Personal responsibility for the actions and outcomes one chooses to engage in. There are a great many people who would like to disagree with […]
‘I could tell you my adventures — beginning from this morning,’ said Alice a little timidly: ‘but it’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.’ Step right up, who wants a shot? C’mon kid, you’ll do just fine. Come one, come all! It’s the circus, kid. You’re in the […]
It seems that as we move ahead in life, previous situations, events, and attitudes seem almost childish in comparison to who/where we are now. My older sister, Lydia, read me a letter I wrote to her when she was preparing to move out and go to college. I couldn’t have been more than 16 years […]
Today, I had the interesting opportunity to speak with my younger brother, Joshua. You can read a bit more about him in the “My family” section of this site. Josh is 11 years old, and doing his very best to grow up as a strong man without the aid of having a living father. As […]
One of my favorite movies is “About A Boy” for various reasons. In many ways, it is a coming-of-age story for both the young child in the film and also for the grown up man. In many ways, I appreciated observing the man, because I found a great many similarities between his character and my […]
In light of the fact that life never slows down as we grow older, I’m realizing it tends to be grouped together in chapter-book format as we look back on past memories. After seeing many of these memories come together in a unique storybook format, it leads me to wonder what the next few chapters […]
My younger brother, Mark, once proclaimed – as a child, mind you – “I’m invincible. There’s nothing you can do to hurt me.” and he went on to explain his statement; immune from insults, unafraid of death, and not worried about injury, he truly was/is invincible. Looking at his character, it’s hard to not be […]
