#TBT January 16, 2020
#TBT January 16, 2020 It’s floodin’ down in Texas. I wish I could send this water to Australia. Truly, I do. As I headed down to the Mitsubishi dealership bright and early this morning (Still trying to make sure everything is roadworthy as I resume my driving today), Bob Dylan popped up in my Spotify…

Crossroads 3 of 3 for NYE 2020
This 3rd and last installment for the last day of 2019 is all about the music. Well, it’s mostly about the music. The music is all about the theme. WE ARE ALL CONNECTED! I may have mentioned that one or two times before. It is this message I think we need to focus on the…

Crossroads part 2 of 3
As I reviewed the stories from 2019, the one that stood out the most for me, and certainly the most amazing person I met this year while driving Uber/Lyft, is Holly from Green Mountain. Holly inspired with her story and reminded me how important it is to be present, not regret, be appreciative of life.…

crossroads part 1 of 3
2019 is hours away from it’s end. For a great many, that is a welcome event. We look to renew our hopes of a better year. We look to find our footing and balance, pick ourselves up, and dust off the dirt. With another year behind us, we start to wonder if the trail we…

Streetlights on a Saturday night: Entropy and the Pursuit of Happiness
This post was originally written in May of 2019. 14 more hospital stays over the last 5 years along with a body and mind that continues to unravel, and here I am. But don’t see me as struggling to walk. See me as up out of bed and fighting to get my life back. It…

I have always loved Bob Marley and this song was always stirring. Recently, I took the time to learn the true meaning behind the lyrics. They are somewhat prophetic and have become transcendent of race alone. “We are going to emancipate ourselves from mental slavery because whilst others might free the body, none but ourselves…

Caught this during yesterday’s travels after the first set of storms blew through. Thank you Lord! Yesterday, as I came across dozens of people trying to get from one place to another, I was reminded and amazed once again that people are generally kind, courteous, and caring for each other; even total strangers. My last…

I heard that phrase again yesterday, “…lost in the woods.” Reposting from December. I think it is worth repeating. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day all. “The love of God and his fear grew in me more and more, as did the faith, and my soul was rosed, so that, in a single day, I have said…

StreetLights on a Saturday night… I began looking for God to show me a sign, a sign he was present and real. I began looking a long time ago; perhaps, when I was twelve or thirteen. We all ask for signs, don’t we? And, quite often we see them. Maybe you ask God to show…

People Profiles Mark So Last night, my first passenger was Mark, who needed to get to DFW Airport. Many of you may already know Mark. But, for those who do not, Mark is a member of my church and also the leader/teacher of my Sunday school class known as the Ragamuffins. I can truly say…
