Nice guy, pie in the sky, apple of His eye

Power of love is a serious thing. It makes angels sing.

Huey shared the news back in the 80’s. Jennifer Rush wrote about it back in 1984. And Céline Dion repeated Jennifer’s message in 1994. That message was about the power of love. And people evidently were open to the idea. … Read the rest

Favor and grace are here just in case

Favor and grace sound favorable and gracious to me. But maybe I’m just being too literal. And maybe those words aren’t conducive to your ability, or willingness, to sharing information about eternity. And maybe I should clarify why I’m bringing … Read the rest

Start something new. Not tomorrow. That won't do.

Tomorrow is not the time to start something new. Because tomorrow is a concept. Because humans need that concept to help us understand the flowing of time. And even though it helps to include tomorrow in your understanding of time, … Read the rest

You did it. So just admit it.

Things to be optimistic about and figure it out

I love life filled with optimism. In fact, I find it difficult to write songs or rhymes without optimism. And in this day and age that’s almost weird. Right? But I believe I’ve got a lot of things to be optimistic … Read the rest

Anger issues and meanings you misuse

When you get right down to it, it’s pretty easy to brew up a good batch of anger issues. Right? Yeah, pretty much anyone can do it. With one arm tied behind ’em. And since that’s true, think about honeybees. “Huh? … Read the rest

Healing hands in distant lands

OK, so I’m gonna preach a little bit. So, if you’d rather not subject yourself to that, fair warning. Close your eyes, ears, email, or computer and move on. If you’re still here, here I go. You’ve seen ’em. On … Read the rest

Focus factor fights fear of what goes on down here

Foolish Americans look for everything but the book

Haters gonna hate where the Love is great

Give love away if you want more of it today

Roses to remember that all important ember
