Anytime we are faced with a horrible situation in life, we have to challenge ourselves to find the good in it. You have to find the positive and focus on that nugget, otherwise you will get drug down into the basement of negativity. So why has Donald Trump been good for the USA and the... Continue Reading →
Don’t Take Things So Personally
Easier said than done right? If someone says something hurtful to you, a "normal" reaction would be to lash out defending yourself. It is something that I struggle with every day in one form or another. However, when you do respond back in kind, you are basically taking on that persons feelings into your own... Continue Reading →
I’m A Walking Contradiction
I just contradicted myself and I am annoyed that I have broken my "I am perfect" streak! All kidding aside, I was curious as to why and determined to unwrap this. This happened when I noticed people taking advantage of others during the Coronavirus Pandemic. There was a person who stock piled Purell and other... Continue Reading →
2019 Year In Review
As I write this post, my Fantasy Football team has chosen to tank, HARD, in the first round of the playoffs. My team was heavily favored in the playoffs and my matchups were against teams that hemorrhage yards and TD's against opponents but for some reason all of my players decided to chillax today. Oh...

Breaking The Generational Chain
The Perfect Family? When I was a young chap, there was no order. My birthmother was 23 when she had me, her 7th child (She would go on to have 2 more). She started having babies while she was still a teenager and never was able to grow up. She also never had a husband,... Continue Reading →

2018 Year in Review
Personally speaking, 2018 has been a huge year of growth for me. "Growth" is defined differently for everyone and for me, today, growth is knowledge. This year I learned so much about myself and about life, thanks to a series of events that were thrust upon me. I could go back into my calendar and... Continue Reading →
Why Does Watermelon Always Taste Better at Work?
Anytime I bring a watermelon to work for lunch, my quality control diminishes. I can't quite get a beat on why. At home, I savor the best pieces of watermelon and then leave the remaining edges of the melon in the fridge, where I hope they will be eaten by others. Sometimes, while I am... Continue Reading →
Walking Tall
Last week I was at the Jack White show at the WaMu (Century Link) venue. These day's Jack White's shows are hit and miss. Don't get me wrong, Jack is special and you are going to be blown away when you see him, but when he went solo, he started to get a little soft.... Continue Reading →
How Do You Motivate Yourself To Exercise?
Working out is not easy. If you are like most humans, you are met with a constant stream of internal discussions why you should skip exercising, "You need a rest day" "Your going to hurt your back" "Don't worry, you will get it tomorrow," I could go on and on, to infinity (Shinehead reference), but...
