Christmas… shoes and Spirit

Whenever I used to call someone on the phone
I would ask them; “Is this a good time to call ?”
or “Did I catch you at a good time ?”

Now – I’m not exactly on the phone with you, but still…
Did I catch you at a good time ?… —-> Continue…

What is more important?

changing-the-world-1
What are you doing right now
that is more important than changing the World?

That annoying question popped up
for me while I was shaving.
At first I thought it was directed at me -
because at times I find myself caught up
in petty pursuits that have no real
meaning in the big scheme of Life.… —-> Continue…

What if you DID go full out?

I hold too high of expectations for my son.
Actually, it was the other day + 5 years.
I jotted down the thought with the intent on
finishing it sooner than now, but here we are.… —-> Continue…

Who Really Holds the Power?

PresidentialSeal-350On January 20. 2017 the 45th President of the
United States of America took over the Oval Office.

Regardless of the outcome of the election,

The power is in the People.

As long as we continue to be divided,
we will always be pawns to those in power.… —-> Continue…
