Ain’t nobody gonna give a good cahoot-“Respect Yourself”
When you walk across a college campus you see and hear amazing things. Unfortunately you see and hear some disappointing things. One of the troubling sounds I have frequently encountered is the amount of profanity that college students use in conversations as they walk across campus. The F Bomb is not only used but in […]
Dealing with Losing
I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about people who are going thru tough times. Tough times can be losing in relationships, losing out on a job search, losing a promotion, losing a spouse/best friend, or losing your self-esteem.

Easy Street-Wet Willie
I experienced a foot injury during a 5 mile run in early February. After two months I started back today with a 2 mile walk/run. I have learned that starting back slow is the only way to resume an exercise routine. I have missed running because thru Spotify I get to listen to lots of […]

What’s better than sunshine?
If I had to guess what musical group I have listened to the most in my life it probably is the Allman Brothers. So how is it after nearly 40 plus years I discovered a song named “Soulshine”. Song was written by Warren Haynes and is often performed by Warren and Gregg Allman. Warren now performs […]
A friend’s loss-Let it Rain
Over the weekend one of my friends who now is an assistant coach in the NBA lost his mother. She was a wonderful lady who happened to work at the university I am employed at. Last night I went to her visitation and the outpouring of love from the community to that family was tremendous. […]
Running-I get meaning out of song lyrics
This morning I went out for a 5K run with IPhone in hand and my Spotify playlist clued in to Earth, Wind, and Fire. The lyrics for Serpentine Fire reasonated with me The moments I find when I’m inclined to do my best Negative wins when I give in and then I lose the test […]
