Go Ahead…Commit Me

by

Albert Einstein once said, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. If this quote is accurate (and I am inclined to believe that it is), I’m insane. Sad, but true. Insane. Certifiable. Seriously, go ahead and lock me up. I constantly find myself repeating behaviors […]

“Always Give God The Glory”

by

This video kills me… It kills me because even though I agree with everything Colt shares, it usually quite awhile after my dreams are shattered to remember to “never question why things happen the way they do” and to “always give God the glory.” I am so impressed with his maturity and his boldness. Go […]

Drafting Blueprints, Part 4

by

Been awhile since I have done one of these but the holiday is over, and it is time to get back at it. These “blueprints” are prompting me to think through what I want from life. They are merely a baby step in as I begin to traverse thinking through my life plan. I have […]

Action

by

Every time I hear the word ACTION, I find myself silently chanting: ACTION! ACTION! We want ACTION! A-C-T-I-O-N! No, I wasn’t a cheerleader. (I’ve got no hand-eye coordination. I fall down just thinking about doing a toe-touch.) I’ve just always thought that particular cheer was a catchy little motivator. And sometimes I NEED motivation. I […]

I appreciate you all you reading…and adding to the conversation. Here are my top posts of 2009 […]

Fear of Flying

by

I don’t even remember the first time I got on an airplane. I just know that it was before I was deductive enough to ponder (and be terrified of) the concept: a very large and heavy metal object takes off into the sky and then an hour or so later lands hundreds of miles away. […]

On Love

by

One of my favorite “love stories” is Love Actually. You know the one with Hugh Grant, Liam Neeson, Emma Thompson, Colin Firth, and tons of other folks? The one that features 8 intersecting “love” stories. Some that make you laugh. Some that make you scream at your television. Some that make you smile so hard […]

Christmas Snapshots

by

I could kick myself (actually I am pretty sure I am not coordinated enough to make that happen, but you get the point, I am annoyed with myself.) There were SO MANY cameras and digital devices out during the holidays (even 7 year old Macon was snapping shots with a camera Santa brought her) that […]

Fa La La La La

by

It is December 21 and for some strange reason it is just now hitting me that Christmas is around the corner. (Although I’m still not quite sure what has happened to 2009?) Regardless…I am finally starting to feel festive. I am just plain giddy as I think about the week ahead. Here are just a […]
