Attitudes and Latitudes
Monday, 11 December 2017
Attitudes are a settled way of thinking or feeling about someone or something, typically one that is reflected in a person’s behavior. Latitude is about the scope for freedom of action as well as thought. Put the two of them together and we have a potential for a winning formula in this life. How? Our

So much to do — is there ever enough time?
Wednesday, 01 February 2017
Age old question, not confined to today’s fast paced life we live in. It is a matter of getting the mind organized with tasks and priorities. And then………..there is something else. The something else is our desires and passions for doing what it is that we believe is ours to do in this lifetime. Each

Did you get hurt in the heart?
Friday, 17 July 2015
I recently posted a rather innocent question on Facebook and have been taken aback a the great responses it elicited. It is good to know how much people care and to also know that people are reading. However, that same post also got people guessing, with great confidence, about who my person was that I

Love Affairs
Friday, 15 May 2015
We shouldn’t deny it, everybody wants to fall in love in their life. Some people want to fall in love over and again and feel the passion of life in a multitude of ways and have the love affair be as much with life itself as it is with a life partner. All understandable. The thing about

Tears and joy all in one day
Monday, 11 May 2015
The day began as I departed from St Louis at dawn and drove to my home town of Chicago. Some people think the drive a horrid one, I love it. I am on the open road, enjoying the countryside, the old farms, the big sky, the rising sun, and the quiet. I trust my time

New beginnings are more than possible
Thursday, 02 April 2015
This is a week that many observe as Holy Week, me included in that category. And this week can be a great excuse for anyone, yes, any one, any where, at any moment in time. Each day is a new opening for a shift, for goodness to seep into your realm and take hold and

A special request for peace — today
Thursday, 13 November 2014
Peace. It is attainable through intention. I love the words of the song “Give Peace a Chance”.Imagine what would happen if the method of protest would return to the sit ins that used to take place here in America in the 1960s and 1970s. We would be looking at a very different national image and

When your memories bless you and haunt you
Monday, 10 November 2014
We have a lifetime of events that imprint us and those imprints are both emotional and psychological. We have the capacity to influence how it goes, what the feelings are, what the words are, and how we allow them to influence us as we take the next steps in our lives. Build the Strength Within
