Many pain’s befall humanity in this life. In recent years I’ve experienced the uniquely unpleasant, and equally sharp pain of being stabbed in the back by several relatively close friends… and I’m pretty sure these stabbers are not fully conscience of their thrusts.
Let’s say you had a close/loyal buddy growing up and […]
So, I see my 11 year old in her hoody sweater and baseball hat late today… in the 95+ degree temps. She explains that her and a friend were trying to help a baby robin when the mother robin saw them. The mother bird began attacking them. Before I could ask if the winter garb […]

Tonight, as I watch different YouTube clips of “Saving Private Ryan” for the Umpteenth time it dawned me that I really regret not speaking with my great uncle about his service in WWII…
