Everything

More often than not we are blind to the reality of what is there before us. We starve for what we wish we had when we had it all along. We say prayers, we wish upon a star in hopes of a miracle or magic to come into our lives. Behold…. We are the miracle […]

Your time machine

Have you ever wished that someone would invent the time machine so that you could go back in time and do things differently? Would you believe me if I told you most all of us had a time machine at our disposal all our lives and most refused to take advantage of this awesome machine […]

Respect

One of our fundamental teachings we are taught as soon as we are old enough to understand the spoken language and reply. Generally, the first words please and thank you along with excusing me. My dad called my name once and I made the mistake of answering him with the word huh. His reply was […]
