Today our society seems very impatient compared to the those of ancient times, or are they. Since I really did not live back then, I really cannot compare. So lets look at the past 40 or so years. In the 60s/70s everything seemed more relaxed. There were the Blue Laws that prevented stores from being […]

Slow Down
On the way to the store today, a person decided to turn in front on me causing me to slam the breaks on which then in turn caused all the food I had from the restaurant to fly everywhere. Thankfully, none of it spilled and I was thankful to the Lord for this, but why […]
Aggravated with drivers
Today on the way to the store, I am going to the speed limit and so is the person in the lane next to me. Since I know I am going to be turning right after I make the left turn, I get behind the car. So what does the car do, it slows to […]
How we treat others
Sitting here reflecting on my life, I have to admit that I am ashamed of how I have treated people at times. Before I met my wife of 20 years and counting, I had some kind of relationship with roughly 14 women. I ended every relationship due to some stupid issue and the way I […]

Money
I know this is an evil topic to talk about, but this is more about my struggles. I travel for a living currently and make a decent wage, but I wonder if I am being s good steward of what God has provided me with. I believe that everything on this planet is the Lords […]
Sports
I get into a lot of discussion these days about sports. People will start throwing names out and typically I have no idea who they are talking about. Do not get me wrong, I love sports, but I cannot stand the collegiate or professional sports of today. To me everyone of these games is fixed […]
I struggle with the Democratic Party
Let me make this clear, I am a democrat, but I am having a real struggle with the attitude the democratic party has displayed and the direction is has taken. I do believe that at one time this party was for the people of this great nation, but not so anymore. They are no so […]
My struggle with the Elderly
I am in my 50s and I am amazed at how the elderly will treat the younger generation. They act like the younger generation is stupid, has no direction, has no respect or love for God, that their way is the only way, etc. Our church is going through some difficult times and part of […]
