There are some bits of knowledge that you just seem to know. You don’t remember where or how you learned them, they just seem to have been there forever. That is how I came to know my father’s father. For as long as I can remember, I just knew that he had been killed shortly before my dad was born. When I was a small child no one ever really spoke of the man, my…
Ash Wednesday, March 6 until Easter, April 21 The 40 days of Lent will be an opportunity for you to “go deep” with spiritual growth. We are all spiritual beings living in a physical world. Just as in nature, we are always expanding and growing. The spiritual aspects of our lives need to be nurtured and paid attention to in order to become the best we can be. Consider joining others on a spiritual journey…
Have you ever looked into the eyes of a child and seen so much potential and excitement for life that it just made you smile? Did you think to yourself, that this child is going to do something amazing with his or her life, even if she doesn’t know it yet? Do you see that same look in your own eyes when you look in the mirror each morning? If you answered yes then that…
We have all heard the saying that, “the pen is mightier than the sword.” This adage, coined by English author Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1839, was meant to demonstrate that the written word, or the press, is a more effective weapon than direct violence. In short, the written word can be a threat to far more people than just about any other weapon. And in that time period, the saying was very true. There were no…
When I was younger, and ironically enough thought that I had all the answers, I spent a great deal of time, effort and energy trying to force open doors and follow a path that was not meant to be mine. I was certain that with enough effort and determination, I could make that path my own. But it was not until many years later that I achieved the wisdom that was needed to embrace the…

Everyone has their own “happy place” and should visit it as often as possible! We all deserve a break to relax, think, not think or just let the mind wander… my place is definitely a beach or on a reef if I can get to a dive spot. But the important part is remembering to take that much needed time to recharge. You will not fall further behind by taking a break as it will…
The coexistence of every one of us with one another has been quite two-sided; lowly peaceful and highly hateful, in our cohabitations. We, in most cases, want to hold on to people’s fault against us, wanting to keep a perfect relationship amongst ourselves to a state of hate at any instance of imperfection from our fellow man. Forgiveness (forgiving one another) is an important attribute we as a whole should clamor for, yearn to possess…
