It is amazing what the human brain focuses on in the middle of the night. I am sure many of you suffer from chronic pain much worse than I do. Those who do know that, for whatever reason, it seems worse at night – right? It is pretty cool though, cause you can do an

Addiction: P.s. Part Too
After reading my last post on addiction, Jim sent me this video from Johnny Cash. I have heard the song thousands of times I suppose, but I had never seen the video. Jim suggested that it fit seamlessly with what I was trying to convey: I concur completely. Thanks Jim. I love ya bro. I
Addiction – The Universal Monster
I have a suspicion that this will be the most controversial post I will ever write. My prayer and hope is that it will also be the most useful and productive post I ever write. Before I start I ask you all for one thing: your unbiased, open, freethinking, non-judgmental mind. Please read the entire
Pain part 2
I would be remiss to discuss the subject of pain and suffering and not add this video to the discussion. It is incredibly moving and powerful.
Opposites Attract
We have all heard it – most of us have said it: opposites attract. It is most often used regarding human personal relationships. Paula Abdul had a hit record in the 80’s about the subject.

Walking With God
When I was attending New Holland Baptist Church, my Sunday School class took a 12 week course titled “Experiencing God”. I recommend that anyone who has not taken it to do so – it is well written and easy to glean information from. During one of the weeks (week 3 maybe?) we had as assignment

Oh No! “Poetry”
In my soon to be 50 years on planet earth, I have worn many hats and been called many things. I have fancied myself many things also, although most of them were nothing more than an over inflated ego just waiting for something sharp to come along and pop the bubble. As a student I
Easter Trees 2.0
I will preface this post with an advance notice. In no way do I mean any disrespect to any of these artists, much less any member of the Holy Trinity. In fact, those three and myself are on a first name basis, and I have it on good authority that they have a GREAT sense
Easter Trees 1.5
BTW… To any and all who are interested… Anytime I get a chance to brag on how awesome the state of Georgia is, (especially the town of Athens), I gotta do it. Athens has the distinction of having a tree that actually owns itself. How cool is that??? You can read about it here. https://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/11703
