Another year goes by and we have survived and thrived. It may not be what we wanted to be, but if you are alive and you are seeing the Holidays and the New Year then you are where you should be. 2022 is around the corner beckoning to you with all your talents and theContinue reading “New Year on the Way”

Time Goes Fast, Don’t Waste It…
It is interesting when you see the other side of the mountain. Does it make you feel accomplished or just older? To me, you have to look at where you’re at and where you want to be. There are many things that I want to do but I can’t just get up and go anywhere.Continue reading “Time Goes Fast, Don’t Waste It…”
A Small Nugget Where My Dad Showed He Cared
Cherish the Fleeting Moments before they Pass My father is 93 years old, and he has had a good life. Sadly, he is now suffering from forgetting names and seeing people that are not around anymore. He forgets our names at times, and it is somewhat disturbing when he calls you and it is notContinue reading “A Small Nugget Where My Dad Showed He Cared”
Becoming a Teacher
I am still feeling nostalgic from last week. This week I want to talk about the next step when I lived in the late 80’s. Everyone has a story or a path that they follow even when they don’t know it. For me, I found myself working as an insurance geek in a large firm.Continue reading “Becoming a Teacher”
Stillness of the Morning
I have always loved the early morning. It is a quiet and thoughtful time for me. I used to go out for walks or even drives in the early morning. I’m talking about back in the late 1980’s. I had a memory of driving to the Griffith Park Observatory at about 5:30 am one morning.Continue reading “Stillness of the Morning”
One Life is All We Get
Where do you derive your meaning? My parents were immigrants to the United States in 1959. They came to this country looking for the land of opportunity. My siblings and I were born in Los Angeles. My parents had great expectations for us. They wanted us to be somebody important…a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. TheyContinue reading “One Life is All We Get”
Don’t Stand So Close to Me
I miss people I saw The Police perform at Hollywood Park in 1983. They were an amazing band live and their energy was electric. The thing that I remember was getting there with my friends and making sure that we sang all the songs and we didn’t miss any of their songs. There were three other popularContinue reading “Don’t Stand So Close to Me”
Joseph, Copper, and Moose
A little more than three years ago I walked into a meeting with a guy named Joseph in this smallish gym. He seemed to be full of energy but also very smart and intuitive. Often times in our lives we find people, or in this case, a person, that influences our lives in a wayContinue reading “Joseph, Copper, and Moose”
Graduations
It’s hard to believe that my older son is graduating in a month and will be starting high school. It seems like it goes so quickly but at the same time every day brings a graduation of sorts for each of us. We celebrate the big events in life, but we often forget that forContinue reading “Graduations”
The First One
This is my first post and I never thought I would blog. I feel lost in this world of Facebook, Instagram, and whatever else is out there. Times change. It’s interesting because I did believe in electronic messages years ago. I loved taking the time to create a message on mixed tapes. You canContinue reading “The First One”
