I often wonder what it is that I missed in my developmental years that caused me to get it all so wrong so often. I’ve considered it all now and again for years. I’ve reached a conclusion or two in the past, only to find later that I was wrong about that as well. I’ve […]
If you follow me at all, you know that my featured image is important to me. You may also know that I pay a very talented artist to provide images for me and she is nothing short of FANTASTIC! Sometimes though, I will try something new, as in the image of this piece. The above […]
I was born too early, I was born too late. Often I ponder such minuscule, yet prodigious statements. As I write this, I’m a mere 57 minutes from my 60th birthday. Of course, the obvious answer is, “I was born right on time, exactly when I was intended to be born.” I answer in the […]
As a writer, I am my biggest critic. I feared that all of my work held the same feel, the same “sound.” So I wanted to produce something from a different voice. Lines from a different tone. I apologize for the lack of “Featured Art.” Or, I should say, “related” featured art. I have […]
The Doc said, “We are going to do some lab work,” explaining the names of the tests to be done and what each meant individually and collectively. “I’m afraid of what you might find,” I replied. “But I’m afraid of what I might miss,” I said, my voice trailing off a bit, simultaneously thinking that […]

I wish that I could remember the dream that I had last night. Recently, while searching for a better quality of sleep, I incorporated a nightly Melatonin tablet which to my delight, served to intensify my dreams, but ultimately, I quit on the meds because I found myself drowsy during the day. Since then, I’ve […]
**** You may notice the featured artwork isn’t up to par with what I normally use. There are a couple of reasons why. First of all, Chelsea has encountered some issues with social media and I only recently found out. We will be getting this resolved quickly. Secondly, this post came out of left field […]
NOTE: I started writing this back in August. Since that day, we have had almost no rain until yesterday. Now that we were blessed with yesterday’s rain, I decided to finish. The rain probably has nothing to do with it, but the finished product comes from a decidedly more positive point-of-view than if I […]
I heard a story one day that provided food for a lot of thought and conjecture. To the best of my recollection, the story goes something like this. Once there was a young man who dreamed of being a rodeo cowboy. He seemed to have the gift to be good at it and […]
