These are the words of my very confident and innocent 2 year old. She is just repeating what I say to her when she accomplishes something “amazing” to me. She readily accepts that she is amazing. It’s funny to hear, yet wonderful. It’s funny because we automatically assume as adults that if someone says that [...]
This is an old song I wrote years ago. It says perfectly how I feel today. Though it is February and not December, the idea applies. Sometimes it feels like all our efforts are in vain. Sometimes we look or feel like dead bare trees. But the reality is that the dormant trees are very [...]
This whole “String” theory is very intriguing to me. I just watched a special on Discovery about the Theory of Everything, Stephen Hawking’s brilliant breakthroughs and how it ties (pun intended) into the string theory. Throw in a little theory of relativity, laws of gravity, electromagnetic radiation and the big bang theory and it’s enough [...]
I love seeing the same old products continually trying to reinvent themselves to stay “New and Edgy”. Let’s take the razor for instance. You know, back in the day…you had one single blade. That’s all you really needed as a beginner shaver to remove an ankle and live out the shower scene of psycho. Well, [...]
I guess it’s time to talk about another hard topic. Everywhere I go this week it seems like I am hearing about some kind of stalking incident. So here is my story. I was stalked in college. It was a crazy, surreal time of life. It ended in him going to jail – and technically [...]
I can hardly believe what is happening! Again this year – Just the same as last year and the year before. Massive floral homicides are taking place all across the country. All in the name of this ridiculous, misinterpreted, over sensationalized holiday headed up by cult leader St. Valentines. Most people see a beautiful bouquet [...]
It’s all about perspective… Isn’t it though? Sometimes knowledge, experience, and wisdom gives insight and advantage. But sometimes it holds you back…or prevents you from seeing things in simplistic terms. Sometimes we get so set in our complicated grown up ways and what we know (or think we know)…it messes up our perspective and prevents [...]
I had a surprise pity party thrown for me tonight! My old friends Sorrow and Suffering snuck in and surprised me with a bundle of ridiculous thoughts and a bottle of bitterness. They even invited Pride over, who of course, commanded all the attention and thought it was all about him. But it was for [...]
Life is a lot like cycling…you have to keep moving to stay balanced. ~ Albert Einstein My little girls are the greatest. They are neat little people. Today we went sledding and I watched them shoot down the hill and crash land at the bottom into the snow embankment that is supposed to prevent them [...]
It’s really true – kids say the darnedest things…some really funny things. Mine are no different. Here are some of the funnier things that I can remember my oldest saying so far. • One of the earliest “talking” memories I have is when she was just learning to talk. At the time her SP sound [...]
