Sometimes things can be difficult, and sometimes some things can be easy. This morning was difficult because I wanted to come up with something spectacular. It didn’t work. I was trying too hard to do something that would be great. However, the actual answer came from hearing the song Walk Like a Man by FrankieContinue reading “Just Dance”

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…”

The Waiting is the Hardest Part
The late, great Tom Petty wrote that “the waiting is the hardest part”. It was one of my favorite songs of his. I look at the song now as part of the human condition.
