Ever since becoming an involuntary member of the “Life-Changing Events Club” in 2009 when my daughter lost oxygen to her brain for 6 minutes,
I have viewed life with a new perspective.
That new perspective has been the greatest gift of my life.
I believe in life’s ordinary events there is extraordinary meaning.
I believe within our lives there are many life lessons which, when applied, can vastly prepare us for what is to come in our lives.
I believe everything we do and everything that happens to us in our life – happens for a reason.
I know the reason may take many years to come to the surface.
But it most certainly will.
And, I believe, if you are paying attention, you will realize the magnificence of how the universe works.
Here is my vision for my life and for this blog:
To improve the quality of other people’s lives by converting my life experience into the seeds of love, kindness, gratitude, and appreciation which I will plant in the soul of others.
I will be present and nurture this new spirit during chaos and crisis and share in and enhance the bloom of this spirit during accomplishment.
To live in a manner and way which will inspire those I serendipitously share paths with to live their version of the same in their lives.
That is the vision for my life and for this blog.
Thank you for your support.

I have learned that the toughest part of life is the dichotomy of the good and bad that happens to you at the same time. There is so much good. You can find heaven in the ordinary when you look for the good. The bad really […]
The most important thing one can do before one’s feet hit the floor each day is to be grateful for the opportunity to solve one’s problems – And the realization that there will be more problems to solve tomorrow. And to find happiness within this.
Maybe there are people on this earth who are undercover.
People who have been sent by a higher power.
People whose lives intertwine with ours for a brief time.
People who are sent into our lives at the exact moment we need them.
Today, ask your wrestler how they are doing mentally, no matter how great they seem they be doing physically. Sometimes, superhuman athletes are far superior at being athletes than they are at being humans.
Every life has a “Before and After” line in it, where your life has been one thing up until you reach a specific event and it suddenly then becomes something totally different.
You are approaching your line today,
