I recently got to thinking about how much LOVE plays a role in our daily lives in so many different aspects that make we humans so unique. For example: Do you recall as a young child when you fell down and scraped your knee how much it hurt at the time, but when your Mom …
Have you ever watched some older movies where the Director/Producer brought the entire story to a final climax in the last frame with “The End”? In those olden days of cinema, there were no sequels to keep the story line going like we have today where the main character miraculously recovers from his nearly fatal …
“But”…No matter how many times I hear this word, I know from my experiences in life, there’s a contrast or contradiction between the first sentence and the next one following the “but”.

Do you remember what you were doing on June 22, 1972? Not really you say. Well until a few months ago, neither did I. So what happened to “jog” my memory? It was a few months ago when my wife and I were cleaning out the garage and came across our high school senior yearbooks …

Living in America, I believe most people would answer by naming President Abraham Lincoln as a great emancipator. President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation signed into law on January 1, 1863, freed forever “all persons held as slaves within any State or …
In the Bible passage of Jesus healing the blind man, John 9: 39-41 captures the essence of the moment. “Jesus said; for judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.” Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, “What? …
Do you enjoy rollercoaster rides? I don’t mean that you just “tolerate” it for the sake of not showing weakness to your friends, or your children. I mean that you get really excited before, during, and even after the thrilling ride on a rollercoaster. It’s pretty common for even the bravest riders get a little …
Don’t you enjoy being able to make a direct connection to your destination when flying on a commercial airline? I certainly do. Typically, I don’t enjoy the hassle of disembarking from one aircraft, traveling through several concourses with one or more bags in my hands, finding the right gate, and then waiting a prolonged period …
