Submission to authority.
What is it… …about submission to authority that drives us to total insanity? Why is it so difficult to just submit to authority? I mean, everybody has to do it! I had to go home at lunch today to talk to my son about submission in doing his homework. The funny thing is… this week…
Is this for real?
So I’m lying in bed. Can’t sleep. A couple hours earlier, I was whispering in my wife’s ear that I loved her. Affirming her as my beloved. Thanking her for completing me. Then once again, I said, I love you. Inside my head, this voice says, Why? What do you mean, why? I responded back…

Hopeless? Alone? Stuck in a rut? Need a way out?
Life isn’t always easy…There are times when we get ourselves in a hole and start to think our hole is unique. We get a bit of tunnel vision and think that nobody knows or has experienced what we’re experiencing and as a result, we lose sight of the goal and feel lost and alone – with…

If I come across someone who is commenting on the merits of “pro-choice,” I stick my nose in it and argue. The other day, I experienced something that made me think. I read an article exposing hospitals that forced…
Potential
William Shakespeare wrote, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” Or would it?
