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. Anytime someone is dreaming big the real battle is always internal vs external. How do we battle the naysayers, personal doubt, adversity, … Continue reading A “Letter” from the Goalpost

One Drop at a Time

My era began inside the home with a telephone attached to the kitchen … Continue reading The Original “Cellphone”
