Continue reading →: Truth & RecipesSo far, I’ve only known the bachelor lifestyle. I must admit there are many times the cooking has been on the pitiful side. If it were not for processed foods that come in a can, box, or frozen in a bag, I would not have eaten as much as I…

Continue reading →: 80 Years to Fall in LoveThis week I was listening online to a question and answer session. The questions were difficult to answer yet were welcomed by those answering them to the best of their ability. Since being brought up in church, I had always been taught about hell. Many of us wrestle with understanding…

Continue reading →: Having StandardsStandards. Why do we have them in the first place? How much exactly is one inch? How about one cup? We know the answers because we’ve used instruments of measurement before. Perhaps it was a tape measure or a little plastic cup with markings and numbers on it. In one…

Continue reading →: GreatnessTrue greatness does not ask for the title, it just becomes so, often in the midst of conflict and pain. It takes a lot to stay on the path of success. With countless opportunities to run from adversity, far too few of us stick it out until the end. For…

Continue reading →: Hide and SeekOne of my favorite childhood games was hide and seek. One child closed their eyes, while the others went and hid. The ages of those playing determined how secretive of a hiding spot they would find. The youngest picked spots where they were easily seen. While hiding behind a plant,…

Continue reading →: Miracle of MusicI went to a hospital, although for the first time it was not to actually see someone. I was not working so I took my mother to the other side of town for an appointment. I kept her company while she was in the waiting room for what seemed like…

In the game of life, you need a strategy in order to win. Sports are filled with opposing teams who study each other, as well as themselves, trying to figure out the…

Continue reading →: Jeff v3.0Recently, I found myself reminiscing about times past. If you ever used a rotary phone, you undoubtedly remember the frustration of your mistake at the end if you selected the wrong number. Start over!

Continue reading →: Free IndeedFreedom is precious and not to be taken lightly. It is desired because we all are or have been bound by something. Our hearts yearn for freedom from oppression of all sorts. We even expect someone to swoop in and rescue us so that we will not have to rescue…

Continue reading →: Get an UmbrellaWhen I first moved here, the weather was perfect. Bright blue, sunny skies filled most days. It did get cooler as the winter months came but that didn’t last long. By springtime, it got pretty hot, not what I was used to in April. Everything was fine at first, but…

Continue reading →: High Risk, Huge LossRisk is proportional to loss. The greater the risk, the more one stands to lose. Getting close to good people means to risk losing them. Unfortunately, such is the way of life. To avoid this risk is to live alone in isolation. This mentality works but it’s kind of like…

Continue reading →: Only MeWhen upset or angry, there is often a temptation to become self-destructive in some way. We downplay things to justify our behavior.
