Convergence
CONVERGENCE As you may remember from previous Newsletters, I enjoy the outdoors and walk daily. I trek down the same trail each day never getting bored with the scenery and apparent safety of the route. The routine adds a sense of security and solitude, creating a mental atmosphere that is conducive to my wandering thoughts that seem more significant and worldly wise than they really are. Today I Continue Reading
Single Step
SINGLE STEP What an effort it was today to complete my four-mile walk. I don’t just walk, but I keep the pace that would excite a drill sergeant in boot camp. However, what made today different was that I started on my excursion later in the day, the heat was already climbing, and I had not been feeling too well for the past two days. Not a good combination to successfully achieve your exercise Continue Reading
Expectations
EXPECTATIONS Here I go again, expecting those around me to live up to my standards. I just don’t understand why my friends and family so often let me down by not acting the way I want them to. What a disappointment! Why are they not more like me! Think like me! Of course I am being a “little” over dramatic. But the truth of the matter is, we all from time to time are disappointed in those closest Continue Reading

I have been quite surprised on both counts! On Continue Reading
A Prescription For Life Challenges
A PRESCRIPTION FOR LIFE CHALLENGES More than ever in my life I have been challenged to remain well grounded. This is not intended to be a confession but a declaration of fact about the world that surrounds me. So many of my friends and business acquaintances have expressed that the challenges of family, work and finances are overwhelming. From a macro standpoint, the challenges of our Country and Continue Reading
The Season Begins
THE SEASON BEGINS April is a month of change for many reasons. Most obvious is the annual weather adjustment from the bitterness of the cold and absence of color to the gentle nighttime temperatures, which bring the overnight explosion of the flowering fruit trees. For those of us that are homeowners, it is now that we prepare our checklists for those minor repairs that have been put on hold Continue Reading

Goals are Tools
GOALS ARE TOOLS By this time of the year, you start hearing from your friends and associates how they have fallen short of their New Year’s resolutions. The failed intentions, goals that were unrealistic and unobtainable are as common as the ritualistic declarations made only several weeks earlier. For some this may be perceived as a failure of life and establishes the tone for the year by Continue Reading
A Message For The Season
A MESSAGE FOR THE SEASON My special Summer People may be in the doldrums by now with the shorter days and the clock changes. Maybe you are one of those that are severely affected and cannot overcome the mental anguish brought on by the change. Your daily lament about the lost daylight, cooler days and lack of spending time with your favorite outdoor activity (special note to my golfers). However, Continue Reading
