Your journey is unique to you, and your triumph can only be measured by how far you have progressed from your own beginning and how close you are to reaching your personal goals.
As we age and learn more about the world that we live in, many of us also allow that knowledge to limit our goals and dreams. Children dream of being a doctor, lawyer, ballerina, or musician before they ever understand all of the education that is needed to reach their goal.

If you were talking, Granddad would be 100% focused on you! There would be no unnecessary interruptions. He had no cell phone to distract him. Granddad loved talking with people. And he would talk with them! Granddad never had a condescending air about him. He respected everybody.…
In the past months, many friends of mine have faced difficult times in their lives. Some had a relative who passed away, others experienced problems in their marriage, some faced health difficulties, such as undergoing a major operation. These situations made me wonder about life.

There is nothing about life that is stationary or static. Our heart is always beating to move blood through our body, we are always breathing in air, and electrical impulses are running through our brain. The only time that anyone is truly not moving at all is when he or she dies. Life is all about movement. But what we as humans tend to get hung up on is the act of moving forward. Almost…
Never judge a child’s potential or who he or she might grow up to be… What starts out life looking like a common weed often grows into the most breathtaking flower in the garden. We all need time to set our roots firmly in the soil and blossom into our grown-up self.
Victory, we all want it, and we all have what it takes to achieve it.

I can’t allow today to slip past without taking a moment that think about and thank my Grandpa for all that he did for me and our entire family.
