Here’s a good list. Good for each of us; good for our fellow humans; good for the planet. Let’s start NOW.

Flex
When I was a kid, adolescent really, I lifted weights. I was an athlete, among other things, and understood I needed to be stronger to better compete. And so in that adolescent athlete world, we’d talk about “flexing” your muscles. But that’s not what this post is about. It’s about being flexible; and I don’t …
SINK
Let it sink in. The efforts, the lessons, the smiles. The struggles, the pain, the doubt. The hope, the belief, the sense of what’s right, the calm, the certainty of God being near. Let it inform how you think, feel, act. Let it sink in. To your bones. LOVE. Let it sink in.
Listen to Them
It’s really hard sometimes, just listening. But it’s the right thing to do, just listening. If you’ve got kids, just listening goes a long way. But kids or not, just listen. Just listen. JUST LISTEN.
Lyrics Post: “The Three R’s”
Good tune, good lyric, good message... Do the math, teach your kids, do the same. "The 3 R's" Three it's a magic numberYes it is, it's a magic numberBecause two times three is sixAnd three times six is eighteenAnd the eighteenth letter in the alphabet is R We've got three R's we're going to talk …
Access for All
This catch-phrase might seem pie-in-the-sky. Surely not everyone can be on the same footing, have the same access to resources. Maybe not. But part of the American (global?) society I believe in and strive to move forward is in basic areas, there should be access for all. Clean water. Sanitation. Healthy food sources. Basic education. …

Work Bag, On-site or WFH. Lions Activities Providing Some Balance. More time in front of screen, less active. Today? A …
Grinder
A Grinder is person that doesn't give up. A Grinder just keeps at it, no matter the failures, the struggles, the obstacles that present themselves. It's hard to be a Grinder. On my best days I think of myself in this way. Actually, that's not true. On some of my worst days I think I'm …
Dark and Light
Like each day, this year, dark and light. Just when the darkness seems endless, a glimmer in the distance, hope. Faith helps. Sometimes. Other times not so; much too much it seems all the struggle and challenge and unexpected twists. Run through, stay true, to the path, the course, the way. The Way, and they …
Courage, Strength, Trust
These traits emerge anew. Found in words from Psalm 33. I discovered the verse via my cousin who lives in western New York. I think I need to read the whole psalm; thanks for the inspiration, cuz. “Our soul waits for the Lord; he is our help and our shield.” - Psalm 33:20. So simple; …
