Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? #2 – My Friends

In last week’s post, I said your parents are your first formative influence who give you so many of your basic life lessons and core moral code. If that’s the case, I feel like your friends are the ones who exist to test, question and expand that moral code as you grow.  Your friends are […]

It’s not my best work – my first attempt ended up with the music I picked not working properly.  Then I tried to use YouTube’s Creative Commons music but couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “We Don’t Know Joy Without Experiencing Sadness” – Some Thoughts on a Tough Year

There’s no two ways about it – this has been one of the toughest years of our lives. Shea and I have dealt with a family member being diagnosed with, treated for, and living with all the fallout from a fairly serious form of cancer, numerous deaths of people who were connected to us – […]
