I love Jeff Goins. He's a full-time writer who sends out daily blogs about writing, discipline, and entrepreneurism (is that a word?). His stuff is challenging and occasionally it makes me stop and really think about the "what" of what I'm doing, but more importantly the "how" and "why".  Jeff recently wrote a post called [...]

I heard this song on the radio this afternoon and I knew it would be today's post. This is a brand new song by Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings.  This lady is feisty and fun and I want to meet her someday :)  I'm pretty sure she's the female Chuck Norris. Roar! Check out [...]

It's hard to believe that the album is already 4 months old. Its also hard to believe that some of these songs have been around for 2-3 years. Time goes by so fast! Well, I just thought I'd share this given the fact that there are 6 billion (give or take) people on the earth [...]

I've always told people that somewhere down the line, maybe when I get older and "settle down", I would like to own and run a hostel - a place for world travelers to come and be refreshed during their travels. It would be a cozy home with many rooms, group dinners, a lovely porch, and [...]

Peace and I played a house concert last night at this beautiful home in Raleigh, NC. We're still here and we do not want to leave. :) The couple are world travelers and they designed their backyard garden based off of gardens they've seen while visiting other countries.  It's hard to tell from this photo but this [...]

I opened for Liz Longley last night and I was mesmerized. I honestly can't remember the last time another singer/songwriter challenged me to be better. To want to be better. This was my favorite song of the night...so I'm sharing.

I'm not gonna say how I came across this, or how it came across me, or who wrote it, or anything. I'm just gonna say that I'm glad I saw it right now, because I had no idea what I was gonna post tonight. So I'm posting this :)  This is completely unedited and I [...]

I talked with a friend of mine yesterday who told me he had just gotten fired from his job...by text. I was and am still appalled! Do they really do that these days? Fire people via text message? Here's the problem: we live in a society where people don't know how to talk to each [...]

//HOW do we approach love? //If the love we see today is more obsessive than caring, //and more of an addiction than a freedom, //love has lost its reality. //I see a selfish ignorance of the souls we torture //The true plague of humanity. //disposable promises, //disposable people, //being melted and mutilated by the carnal [...]

MOM As soft as cotton. As sweet as candy. As tough as a rock. Came to America w/ Dad some 37 years ago to further her education. Went to medical school and did her residency after having all 4 of us kids! Completely selfless in everything she does. Says she is only happy when we [...]
