On your spare time, google “how to impact the world“. You’ll see a list of sites dedicated to teaching and breaking down the behaviors of great leaders among us. In fact, I just clicked the first website that google found it to be most relevant to the search. (obviously, google knows everything!). The link actually …

On the passenger seat of her beat up white 1968 Volkswagen bug was a blanket that she put over her lap while driving. It was mid-winter, and we both knew that the heater in her bug never quite worked right. Well, actually, it did what it was supposed to do, but it just took a …
Johnny and I fought for attention in all the high school classes that we had together. I specifically remember my English class though, where every chance we got, we would have the classroom bursting in laughter. It was our stage and the hallway (where we would end up sometimes for disturbing the class) was our …
It’s been an interesting week as we prepare for our first child’s (Isaac’s) departure to college. I have mixed emotions but mostly, I am in denial. I keep telling myself that everything will still be the same; we just won’t see him as often. As a busy teenager, we don’t see him that much anyways. …

It was a typical afternoon; nothing too exciting. I was in college and had just finished attending a few classes in the morning. I had been fighting to stay awake and was looking forward to getting home for a quick lunch, then off to work. Everything seemed like an ordinary day as I was thinking …
I’ve always been a big dreamer. I would daydream and visualize scenarios that seemed unreachable, but I would keep dreaming and thinking about it. Sometimes I’d be obsessed with it, until one day, reality would hit, and then I’d move on to the next dream. A dream that’s more attainable, something more real. My basketball career …
Any basketball players out there? I played basketball in high school. I know; you’re already impressed. What position you ask? I played the famous left bench position. Not the right bench position where you are sitting close to the coach ready for immediate execution of his orders to jump in and deliver while the starter …
