I used to travel a lot for work. I spent many hours in airports and planes. Inevitably, there would be times when upon arrival to the airport the plane could not land – just yet – or had to taxi and wait for the receiving gate to become available. For those of us who have […]

It’s a MAD WORLD! The world is changing fast, isn’t it? It seems everywhere we look is filled with darkness. News broadcasts doom and gloom. The pandemic, the economy, homelessness, joblessness, sickness, anger, anxiety, depression, fear… the list goes on and we are all feeling it. It seems living in isolation has become the social […]

Insecurities are purpose blockers… Fighting those insecurities in my mind has been a battle. You see, I am a dreamer, I have always been a dreamer.

Have you ever looked at the clock and thought, “Wow! Where has the time gone”? Are you a Rip VanWinkle in front of the screen? For all the knowledge the internet has brought us, it failed to bring wisdom. We have hundreds of friends on social media who we have never even met in real […]

Do you ever feel like you are stuck? You know, for every two steps forward you take a step back and you feel like no matter what you do, you just can’t get ahead, as if you are stuck in waste high mud? Do you ever feel so bogged down by anxiety and uncertainty, and […]
