Way back, when I was but a wee lad with a mind of mush, I found daily joy in the sound of me own voice (not sure why I remember that with an Irish brogue). And that might seem a bit arrogant, but allow me to explain and expound. My own voice was my instrument of choice. Most guys I knew, back then, who … The rest of the story…
Hmm…let’s talk about a big bang. Sounds like fun. Right? I mean who doesn’t like the bang-up sound of a drum? Not Todd Rundgren. In fact, he wrote and sang a song about it back in the 80’s. I don’t want to work. I just want to bang on the drum all day. And I don’t want to play. I just want to bang … The rest of the story…
There’s first-hand information. And there’s second-hand information. And those can both be eyewitness accounts of something. But then there’s mutual information. And, in a way, it’s an eyewitness account of something (or someone) even more important. I know. My description of mutual information sounds cryptic. But it’s because I first wanna share a little information I found in a social media post. The person, … The rest of the story…
You’re a person. Yes YOU! And you’ve always been, and always will be, a person. From your biological beginning to your natural death. And beyond if you choose well. So, get wise. And choose well. Because, if you’re reading this, you have the luxury of choice. But millions of other persons never got that choice. And do you know why? Because of something that … The rest of the story…
I saw an article that said “imagination is everything.” That’s so wrong. And it sends a deceptive message. Especially to little kids. And even to teens for that matter. To say imagination is everything is like claiming it as your god. “Oh now, c’mon Tony. Really? You really believe that?” Yeah. I do. I can’t say your kid’s life will be completely better because … The rest of the story…
Who you are, what you do, and what you know, all of it, means nothing without love. Absolutely nothing. Because if it isn’t in you, then neither is life. So, that means you and I are nothing without love from God. Because love didn’t evolve. It came from an eternal source. And that source is your Creator. Whether you believe in Him or not … The rest of the story…
A few years ago I wrote about a protoplanet named “Vesta.” And how it might have some clues about how life on Earth might have formed? Scientists discovered some areas of impact on what they call a “minor planet.” And the scientists said this impacts show collisions with carbon rich asteroids. Then, they emphasized that carbon is the essential building block to all life on … The rest of the story…
He said he learned to sing “in church, because of my mother. God bless my mom.” And I read another quote from him that was in response to being called Mr. Evans. He replied, “Don’t call me Mr. Evans; only my minister can call me that.” And American music chart history shows how he had the only record, ever, to reach number 1 at … The rest of the story…
Live well and be well because you can’t be sick and inspire…at least not for long. Oh, you think you can? Think again. You need your health. It’s not just something that’s nice to have around. It’s the core essential to any job you do or any career you have. Don’t just be sick. Because the world needs you to Be Well. Whether they … The rest of the story…
In 1975 I worked in a lumber yard in a small town in East, central Kansas. I drove large lumber trucks with loads of materials to new home building sites. And I drove a forklift to load and unload the trucks. I also took orders, made sales, and even shoveled loads of sand into backs of pickups. Plus, I thought about how the end … The rest of the story…
