If there ever was a waste in life, it would be that of a second. Seconds move so quickly that we seldom value them at all. If only we realized how they are the building blocks of life, then perhaps we would not waste so many of them. On their own, seconds are insignificant, although…
The Value of One Job
We will never enjoy our work so much as when we give it our all. When all is consumed, we will have climbed to the highest peak using every tool our disposal. Not many will join us, but the view is magnificent! Work ethic keeps us going long past the desire to quit. A job…
The Value of One Life
One life matters. Not every person in this world believes it, but that does not negate this simple truth. People have acted wickedly toward one another, which is partially what leads us to believe otherwise. The value of a creation is known most by its creator, the one who designed and built it.

Asset and Liabilities in Friendship
I’d be remiss to talk about friendship and not ask you to examine what kind of friend you are. Are you in a friendship only for what they give you, or do you give back equally? In other words, are you an asset in their life or a liability? Family are the people in our…
Add + Value
Videos posted online have flourished like never before. Browse the comment section of popular channels and it should not take more than a few seconds to find a peculiar message. I rarely post in the comment section of any video. One day, for whatever reason, some of the comments stuck out and caused my eyes…
