As I flew through the air I actually had time to think about what was going to happen next. For those of you that have been launched off of or out of some form of transportation you may understand the moment I am referring to. When I was in high school I actually had aContinueContinue reading “The Nature of Crazy”

One Event
It seems that we are all one event from a different point of view, one event from being free of a misconception. I remember the day that I lost a job that I had, I was free. The amount of stress that I had for the months before hand was excruciating. Even though my lifeContinueContinue reading “One Event”
Exploding Onions of Fire
So now that I have your attention, some observations about food and God. As I was sitting today watching the onion volcano in front of me I was struck by the idea that I now require my food to entertain me, or at least the cook to entertain me. The cook was great by theContinueContinue reading “Exploding Onions of Fire”
Bart, You are a Grown Man!!
I am now 38 years old. I had an epiphany yesterday that in a couple of years I will be closer to retirement age than high school graduation age. So the other night I had to catch a shuttle from the gas station about a quarter mile from my church. I parked at the churchContinueContinue reading “Bart, You are a Grown Man!!”
Coffee, Gasoline, Water
Which is more expensive per gallon from the store: coffee, gasoline, or water? I was given a “coffee maker” the other day that is basically a water heater. You heat up the water and then put small packets of instant coffee from a popular coffee company (we all know who I am talking about). BesidesContinueContinue reading “Coffee, Gasoline, Water”
To Be a Child
As I was trying to get to the bottom of the phrase “in the Lord” this morning my daughter wanted to climb into my lap. I responded by pushing her away and saying quite angrily “get away I am trying to understand the love of God”. Okay maybe I didn’t do that. As she satContinueContinue reading “To Be a Child”
What it Means to be Human
Did you know that there is a field of thought out there that says that reality is defined by our language and relationships? I am not saying that I agree with that sentiment, but I like to ponder the idea. In a sense we don’t truly live without a method of articulating what our sensesContinueContinue reading “What it Means to be Human”
I Would Like to Thank Those 8 People….
I have reached the 2000 hits plateau. I would like to thank all of you that have been loyally reading my blog for the past few months. Even more interesting is the fact that I have somehow reached to over 10 countries (which could have been friends and family on vacation). But just in caseContinueContinue reading “I Would Like to Thank Those 8 People….”
It’s Not My Fault, Its Genetics, or My Parents, or God, etc, etc, etc..
I was going to use a cat for this blog because there were lots of cat pictures that tried to claim innocence, but we all know that cats are always guilty. Deflecting blame is a practice that is old as time. When life gets hard, or something happens that makes us look bad the firstContinueContinue reading “It’s Not My Fault, Its Genetics, or My Parents, or God, etc, etc, etc..”
A New Twist on Leadership
Has anyone else noticed the interesting new trend that is happening in leadership around the world. Television shows have allowed the people to vote on who our celebrities for the minute are. We allow the media now to tell us who should be a celebrity, instead of determining it on merits (thank you Kardashians). TheContinueContinue reading “A New Twist on Leadership”
