THE WEATHER CONVERSATION I value deep conversations. We seem to have a lot of connections these days. But not all of them go beyond the “weather conversation”. You know - that conversation about the one thing that we all share in common - the weather. Some people actually love talking about the weather and in some places it is actually interesting. I spent a few years living in New Zealand in an area where farming was the main thing and the weather affected every day life. It was also … [Read more...] about the weather conversation

Babe, it’s a process
February 12, 2016 A continuation on PROCESS. My wife and I constantly have this dialogue. “Babe - it’s a process!! It is going to be ok.” — that is my constant sentiment. Marriage is basically like holding up a mirror, one that shows you parts of yourself that you did not know existed. You get to see yourself in a whole different light. (caveat — I/we do not have it all together by any means — I just love sharing the journey we are on and the sessions learned along the … [Read more...] about Babe, it’s a process

get off your phone
February 10, 2016 My wife and I have been talking about putting our phones down. Sometimes that is an easy thing to do and other times it is very difficult. We live in an interesting age where we consume media throughout each day. Never in history did we consume information like we do in 2016. What is happening is interesting. The amount of knowledge readily available since the conception of the internet is remarkable. Between the birth of the world and 2003, there were five exabytes of … [Read more...] about get off your phone
Be Unpredictable
February 9, 2016 “The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3.8 —————> BE UNPREDICTABLE Children, Children have this down….for the most part. When you give them the chance, they just follow the wind. There was this guy named Nicodemus. You see this Nic guy was a Pharisee, a religious leader. A leader of the leaders in fact, yet he came to Jesus at night, as … [Read more...] about Be Unpredictable
WHY
02.08.2016 QUESTION EVERYTHING I am a big fan of questioning it all. Of asking WHY to everything we find ourselves doing in LIFE. I am not one to just go with the flow and do what everyone else seems to be doing. I guess in a lot of ways I am a little weird… but actually I am ok with that. I would rather BE me, even if that means being a little different than everyone else. Sometimes this makes me the coolest guy at the party, other times I feel like I am the weirdest guy in … [Read more...] about WHY

all you have are excuses
February 6, 2016 all you have are excuses (time to DREAM AGAIN) This blog is not really about travel at all. It is about LIFE and choosing a journey that is truly yours. One that is not your parents, or the societal norm set by someone else for your life. There is not one right path to take. Believe me I have met some people old in age who did what they were suppose to do in life and they are not happy. Yes “happy” is a very relative word/concept but the point is — DO NOT SETTLE. Do … [Read more...] about all you have are excuses
