I’m sitting here procrastinating something
that many people actually enjoy.

Singing; more specifically karaoke style.
I found a place in Vancouver that has Karaoke Night,

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

It’s that time of year again where they play all those songs
that are supposed to put us in the Christmas Spirit.

I found my hero for the day.

And this is how it happened.
I’m standing in a store and

If there were an evil force in this world,
it’s best line of attack wouldn’t be a
full frontal assault, but rather a series
of challenges, failures and setbacks.
It would use such tactics as distraction,

Is your best good enough?

This is the question I asked when I saw
a photo of a Young Marine recruit who
was giving it his all in a foot race.

His eyes were closed, face clenched
in a grimace of pain and determination;
going all out where others might give up.… —-> Continue…
