“Greed is not a financial issue. It’s a heart issue.” ~ Andy Stanley If you have ever attended a Protestant church service, you have heard about the Holy Trinity.

“If we learn nothing else from this tragedy, we learn that life is short and there is no time for hate.” ~ Sandy Dahl (Wife of Flight 93 pilot Jason Dahl) I write Tuesday’s blog on Monday. This week, I am going to share something a bit different – a video. It’s around 44 minutes …
“…the best of the summer gone, and the new fall not yet born. The odd uneven time.” Sylvia Plath As I write it is Labor Day 2023. It signifies that autumn is nearing (thank goodness), school is back in session, and we take this last breather before the busiest time of the year arrives. We …

“Life begins when a person first realizes how soon it will end.” ~ Marcelene Cox Are you prepared? Prepared for what you may ask. End of life preparation. Now I know, this is not a topic no one wants to think about, much less talk about in detail. The fact is that we are all …

“A picture is worth a thousand words, but a memory is priceless.” Do you have boxes of photos, or boxes of memories? My lifelong friend sent a meme over the weekend that read, “Tag the friend you have thousands of memories with, but almost no photos.” I read it and stopped. She and I have …
Do you ever have days when you feel stuck? Nothing is wrong, per say, but you feel disconnected. I find myself in this position as I prepare Tuesday’s blog. If I am being honest, I have no clue what to write. I know from everything I have read about being a writer, on days you …
