You Never Know…….

You never know the impact you may have on the life of a child. A rightly spoken word or a timely action, could literally, alter a child’s life. As we shift from adolescent to adult, as the years go by, most of us tend to lose the innocence, the beauty, and the purity of childhood. …

Overcoming Anxiety and Fear

We experience so many feelings and emotions throughout the day. We have approximately 60,000-80,000 thoughts in a twenty-four hour period. The majority of us deal each day with some kind of anxiety, depression, and fear. There is a lot that happens within our brain, within our mind. Personally, I struggle daily with controlling my mind, …

Young at Heart

No matter where life takes me, I will always remain young at heart. There are so many opportunities in life to allow yourself to become hard hearted. To allow your heart to become jaded, calloused, and cold. Life can be very difficult at times. There are so many unexpected twists and turns. There are a …

Wrong

It’s ok to admit that you are wrong. It’s ok to admit when you don’t know. It’s ok to admit when you mess up, make a mistake, or say something you shouldn’t have. We are all wrong at times. None of us knows absolutely everything. We all mess up, make mistakes, and say things we …

Inside

I believe all of us have passions deep within our heart.  Deep within our soul.  I believe too often in life, we either neglect our passions by ignoring them, or we simply allow the business of life to drown them out.  I personally have done both.  But as I grow older, experience life more, and …

Be True

Be true to yourself.  Be true to who you are, who you have become, who you want to be.  Be true to your goals, your dreams, and your passions.  In this social media age, it is far too easy to lose sight of yourself.  We see hundreds, if not thousands of images, videos, and posts …

Sacrifice

The more you give up, the more you put on the line, the more you pursue the uncomfortable, the more you sacrifice, the more passion you will find within your life.  Passion comes through sacrifice.  Passion come through pain, suffering, difficulty, and hardship.  The fire burns strongest, when an abundance of fuel exists.  The fire …

You Never Know

You never know.  You never know how you may impact someone’s life.  You never know how your words may uplift a hurting soul.  You never know how your example may challenge someone else to be more.  You never know how the life you live, may change the course of someone else’s life.  We are surrounded …

They Don’t Understand

It’s ok if they don’t understand.  It’s understandable.  Understandable that they don’t get it.  They don’t grasp it.  They can’t wrap their mind around it.  You are walking down a different path.  You are walking down the less-traveled path.  The difficult path.  You have been created and called to live a different life.  You have …

Chop The Tree

The axe is clean.  The axe has been sharpened.  It is ready for use.  I take my axe, and set out to find the largest tree.  No one is around.  The sky is clear, pure blue.  The sun shines brightly, the heat is intense.  I stand shirtless, axe in hand, focused on the task before …
