I Feel Alive Right Now!!!

December 30, 2010

2010 began like most years for me. Dick Clark did the countdown, the ball dropped, fireworks went off, and the calendar changed. Truthfully, I’ve never been much into new year’s resolutions because they don’t typically work.

December 28, 2010

I wrote the poem, The Walk of Life, shown below on December 28, 2008, exactly two years ago. It was a series of thoughts running through my head then, that I feel is applicable to all. I hope you enjoy.

Try (and One or Two Things I NEED From You!)

December 21, 2010

The year was 1993. The Chicago Bulls had just won their third NBA Championship in a row, the first team to do so in 27 years.

What was your Dream?

December 16, 2010

What was your dream? What made you stop? When did you file your dream away and leave it for another to venture after? Why did you doubt yourself? What was your excuse? Do you miss it…the dream? Do you still imagine “what if” late at night when no one is watching? Why did you become […]

Jordan Camp Canceled? (A true Roadblock STUNNER that I WILL CRUSH)

December 14, 2010

While my natural feeling may be to hang my head, put my hands over my face and sulk, my FAITH tells me that there is a plan for my life. A plan that includes this journey.

While it may seem foolish to some, having my dream, something I’ve been anticipating for such a long time, potentially swiped away just days before it is a reality, is extremely painful to me.

Get Out and Move! (Appreciate Your Health)

December 9, 2010

It’s sad that it seems to always take an injury for me to fully appreciate the part of me that is injured.

I suppose most people go through life the same way. We run, jump, run faster and jump higher and think nothing of it until a sickness or injury halts our movement. Then we WISH we could just run and jump, even a little.

Who Calls You Out?

November 23, 2010

It was Saturday afternoon.  Less than three days ago.  A slight overcast watched from a distance. My brother and I had just finished playing two games of one-on-one. He had just beaten me twice. After walking together to get some water, we sat on the steel criss-cross patterned, green bench, just to the side of […]
