Can We Talk?

So who would I most like to talk to soon? The three biggest things in my life are Family, Music and Christianity. I look forward to meeting my daughters who have grown up and moved to new locations. It’s always a joy to see them. And those in my family who have passed away, such … Continue reading Can We Talk?

Precious Possessions: Finnegan

My iPad was very precious to me, but now it spontaneously shuts down every minute. I will eventually buy a new one ๐Ÿ˜€. Perhaps we’re speaking of items that are of sentimental value and that are impossible to replace. They’re quite a lot of these in my house. I think the oldest item is a … Continue reading Precious Possessions: Finnegan

Gotta Catch ‘Em All!

When I think of collections, I think of the slogan for Pokรฉmon back around 1999, when my kids were young – the notion of obsessively collecting them all:Gotta Catch ‘Em All!

I suppose, work ate into my home life through study, which I enjoyed for the most part, and stress, which was partly my own fault for ruminating about work issues at … Continue reading Work for Jesus

Is It Sacrifice?

I can’t think of any major sacrifice I’ve made, but we all make minor sacrifices all the time. To accomplish anything, you need to be disciplined and to be willing to say no to easier paths. For example, you make little sacrifices for good physical and mental health, for good relationships, for a good career, … Continue reading Is It Sacrifice?

Wrangler Jacket and Jesus Saves Badge

I have no idea of when I bought what I’m currently wearing, but I can tell you what the oldest wearable items in my possession are ๐Ÿ˜€. Way back in the mid 1970s, like most teenagers, I yearned to be cool. I didn’t have much money. Somehow or other, I managed to be able to … Continue reading Wrangler Jacket and Jesus Saves Badge
