Pain…
I’ve started and stopped this post for 2 months. So now I started it…. And now I’m stopping it…. OYE
Three Days…
I can’t imagine a more wilder swing of emotions. I’ve had some depressing days. I’ve had depressing periods. I’ve spent days and weeks wondering what God could possibly be doing that is “good”. I heard his promise that all things do work together for good. I heard his promise that the present sufferings are temporary…
Too Soon…
Recently I made a joke to a friend about when he was a guest and hit such a bad shot at a country club that it went up into the patio of where the members were eating and drinking. He was asked not to return. I joked about it…he said, “too soon”. 🙂 I went…
You Just Never Know…
Last weekend I got a phone call from a guy I haven’t talked to in probably 20 years. We worked together. It was late on a Friday night and where he was was loud. I couldn’t figure out why he was calling me. More importantly I couldn’t believe I haven’t cleaned out my contacts! I…
Picking up sticks…
Remember that game? That was literally the name of it. The goal was to…well…pick up sticks. But you had to pick up a stick without moving another stick. Sort of like Jenga only with sticks on the ground. What a dumb game. 🙂 Yesterday I saw a little dog on the walking path here in…

January has been a really tough month. Learning a lot about physical pain and the differences between that and emotional pain. But today….pleasure….

The Best Offense is a Good Defense…
This is a saying you hear a lot in sports. It basically means that “defense” wins championships and the best thing to help your offense succeed is if you have a good defense. There is some truth to it. I get it. But even if your defense allows zero points by the other team, your…
Why this…
Today I found myself being controlled and I didn’t mind. There was a red sign and it said “STOP”…and I stopped. There were these yellow lines in the middle of the road and I didn’t cross them. There were white signs with numbers on them and I corresponded the speed of my car with the…
