“You cannot push the river.” I was reminded of this quote today in a counseling session and it really hit home with me in my recent mode of thinking.

I’ve always been fascinated with numbers. From a young age, I was drawn to them and what they represented. Now, many years later, I still notice numbers, regardless of when and where they appear. Today reminded me of my fascination with numbers and their possible meaning. Today I rolled into the McDonald’s drive-thru for myContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Fifty-Eight”

It’s been a good long while…. It’s been a good long while since I’ve posted any writing in this arena. My interim teaching position took a great deal of my time and energy, but now that it’s done, I can come back to write from time to time. The interim position went well. I wasContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Fifty-Seven”

Maslow’s Hierachy of Needs comes into play…. One of the things I remember from my education courses in college is Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

One step at a time,,,,one day at a time. I am reminded in one of my daily readings this morning to take life one step at a time, one day at a time. I can look at the days ahead and be overwhelmed by all that I perceive I have to get done. The mind’sContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Fifty-Four”

Jersey swap,,,a college jersey and neat story. I recently purchased a Lenoir-Rhyne University baseball jersey, one that was actually worn by a Bear baseball player. When attending the opening game of the football season with my wife, I decided to wear the jersey to support the home team. While I was waiting in line forContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Fifty-Two”
100 Days of Writing – Day Fifty-One
In a get-together of like-minded friends, we discussed resentment and the power it can have in all of our lives. And perhaps most importantly, how to rid ourselves of it. Resentment is a feeling most all of us have had at some point-in-time,,,,or perhaps at many points in time. Someone has done something “to us,”Continue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Fifty-One”
