Carrying a Joke too Far?
There is a thin line between “getting kicks” and reality. While the ability to laugh at ourselves is a good thing, I feel that we have taken this joke a little too far. Some may argue that it’s true. The question is: Do we want it to REMAIN true for us? If we are thinkingContinue reading “Carrying a Joke too Far?”
Questions might be the Answer
Speaking with Olasope Oyelaran, a linguist from Nigeria, Mark Nepo author of the No. 1 New York Times Bestseller The Book of Awakening learned that there were 7,000 living languages that we know of on Earth.

Some interesting “truths” – no one is exempt :)
People love to use the phrase ‘the truth shall set you free’ especially if they’re trying to get some juicy gossip out of you :). And for more serious matters they might use as a warning -‘what’s done in darkness WILL come to light!’ (Be very afraid…) Many of us are not as truthful asContinue reading “Some interesting “truths” – no one is exempt :)”
Change is difficult – step or otherwise
There’s something to be said about persistence. There’s something to be said about having a good support system in place particularly when you embark on an unfamiliar journey. Kinda reminds me of the song “How Do You Keep The Music Playing” made popular by James Ingram and Patti Austin in the ’80s. “How do youContinue reading “Change is difficult – step or otherwise”
