Would you have stopped?

datsun-350w
It’s dark out and I’m driving with my
son across the 205 bridge from
Portland to Vancouver. Actually,
I’m doing all the driving – his legs
are too short to reach the pedals
and he doesn’t have a license yet.

All of a sudden the car stalls
and the engine stops.… —-> Continue…

Choose your words carefully… Please and Thank you :)

If a friend of yours,
or someone you respected
told you that you looked sick
today, would you believe them ?
If a complete stranger told you
that you looked sick today

If a half a dozen people told you

You are what you eat – and How!

My son and I stopped at a place I probably shouldn’t name
to reward ourselves with a Caramel Apple Frosty™ Parfait
and a Wild Berry Frosty™ Parfait.  I had the caramel apple :)

It’s hard to know where to begin.

So much to say – and so much in the way…
If it weren’t for that nail, tonight would be just another
missed opportunity to talk with you.… —-> Continue…

One of the reasons I am grateful for the internet is
that it is getting easier and easier for the “average”
person to get answers to the questionable, rather

The subject of PURPOSE came up twice for me today,
so I felt compelled to take bit of time to pass it on to you.

Because I’m a giver like that  :)

One of the more intriguing and convicting questions
that I have often pondered where people are concerned
is whether they live a life of Purpose or a life of Pleasure.… —-> Continue…

NO GOOD DEED goes unpunished… Really?

homeless2-400w

I was reminded again tonight of something
that my brother said to me not too long ago.
“No good deed goes unpunished.”

I’ve heard that phrase before, but
haven’t really understood the meaning.

So tonight, as all good Americans do – I checked The Internet!… —-> Continue…
