I sometimes wonder how my life will end on this earth. Will the Lord come back? Will I live a good long life? I realized after turning 50 that I was very likely past the half-way point. I now see lots of obituaries of people who are younger arriving in their eternal destination a bit…
I’ve been a people watcher/observer for many years. I don’t enjoy shopping the way some people shop. I do my shopping ahead of time and go to the store and pick out the right size and color and then I’m off to check out. Over the years that I’ve been to the mall or big…
I really enjoy music. I’ve grown up around music all my life. My grandmother played guitar her whole life. She even played when she was in the nursing home the last several years of her life. She had some “Appalachian Influence” mixed with a life lived in Kentucky. I can remember as a kid playing…
I believe that all human beings worship something or someone. There are concert goers who “worship” the star that they are seeing perform. They are totally enamored with them and their music. There are others who worship and adore famous people. It can be movie stars or politicians and they are awestruck to be in…
I have seen sports teams near the end of the regular system whose “destiny is in their hands”. In theory that means that it’s totally up to them if they make the playoffs. I sometimes wonder just how much I can control my own destiny. I actually know people that think that they have…

I remember being in shock on the morning of September 11, 2001. The United States had been attacked here in our cities and the casualties were regular people going to work that morning. I remember hearing the terrorist differently. I had noticed on the newscasts how terrorist struck in other countries. We seemed exempt…
I learned a long time ago what it meant to keep a secret. I learned what it meant to have a secret. The only sure-fire way to keep a secret is the NEVER share it with anyone. My wife and I decided to not keep secrets from one another. Over the years, we’ve done pretty…
I do like to watch sports live and on television. Over the years, I’ve become less stressed because the outcome of the game rarely (if ever) changes my life or the lives of people close to me. The hype around a big game would make one think that the outcome of the big game affects…
I do enjoy nice smelling aromas. I love the smell of my Columbian coffee brewing in the morning. I love the smell of bacon cooking at breakfast. I love the smell of fresh cut grass in the spring time. I love the smell of certain flowers. I love the smell of a nice steak…
