• Bowties, Big Glasses and Laughter

    A picture says a thousand words. While working events we are always rushing around looking like we're not rushing. Smiling as the 'what's next" flies through your mind. Moving through a crowd of people watching, looking... awareness is your best friend. We work very hard, but one of the secrets…
  • Wrapped up in what?

    Psalm 49:5-9 God, yet again, gently reminds me how much perspective matters. A broken appliance, a ripped pair of pants, a damaged relationship - these are not the end of the world. They can seem terrible and horrible and they are not the best examples, but the truth that where my eyes go matter…
  • Dancing in the Morning

    The two dance together as if they are one Bending, swaying, locked in joyful movement Ah... to be a palm tree frond I take a moment before jumping into the fast paced day My moment to 'chill' or fill with projects straining to be fulfilled An orchid opening as I sit at the desk... Sweet eye treat m…
  • Are Disney Villains More Of A Role Model Than Princesses?

    If I didn't seriously contemplate the question, I would probably answer, "No." After all, the princesses are supposed to be representative of the forces of good, so we're supposed to like them more than the villains, right? Well, I think I've changed my opinion. Find out why after the jump!
  • Story of 3 Peoples

    Three people were laying bricks. A passerby asked them what they were doing. The first one replied, "Don't you see I am making a living?" The second one said, "Don't you see I am lying bricks?" The third one said, "I am building a beautiful monument." Here were three people doing the same th…
  • The Descent Is Relatively Smooth

    Things have been pretty okay here. Compared to plenty else I've seen going on, my life seems downright stable. In the true old-school-Epiginoskete style, this will be generalized and thus perhaps a bit cryptic. It's more a "generalize to philosophize" thing than an intentionally cryptic thing. It's…
  • The Path to Renew

    Come along into the garden and we'll release the hold that has your body aching, your heart heavy, your tight shoulders that come from the stress that builds from living this busy life of ours. Here's a jacket as we have a bit of light rain. It won't hurt you to feel the moisture in this garden, m…
  • Its 3.37am,

    I guess we can all find a lil' life, a lil' tingling sensation of happiness that doesn't come so very often in everything we do, everyday. Here I am studying deep into the night (or the morning, you may call it) with my notes strewn all over my bedroom floor, mischievously hiding my pens and what-no…
  • Never

    Psalm 42:9-11 I cannot lose sight of God. He has promised to never leave and to never forsake me. Once this relationship began, He is always right here with me. No matter where I go or what I go through; God is here. God doesn’t forget me. When I am sad, when I am discouraged, it is bec…
  • Transition and Perspective

    August will come and it will be time for the annual return to school marathon and triathlon. For some of us school is but a few weeks away while others of us have until after Labor Day to send our children back to the wonderful world of academia. But either way we need to begin to prepare our chi…
