Cart Before The Horse
What an odd picture that really illustrates the saying "Putting the cart before the horse." However this is a perfect picture of our mindset that exists from time to time.

The “Energy Source”
It is the summer in the south and this time of year always has some specific characteristics. The presence of intense heat, thickness of humidity, a sweating glass of ice water, the sweet smell of honeysuckles, catching fireflies in a mason jar, and the feeling of gratitude for a cool breeze. This would all sound … Continue reading The “Energy Source”
A “Letter” from the Goalpost
Recently, seeing my own child graduate brings out a lot of personal emotion. I have watched her strive for great goals, believe in her faith, and discover her true self in the process.

Wondering what is down this untraveled road? What is just around the corner? However, I personally take the same turn everyday and … Continue reading Just Beyond The Curve

Focus On The Sword
I love the storyline and the battle scenes in the movie "Troy". I often use a certain moment in this movie to illustrate a point with my team and at home. Paris, the son of Troy's King Priam, has fallen in love with Helen of Sparta. The major problem is that Helen is also the … Continue reading Focus On The Sword
