Who Do You Love?…
Do you love your neighbor? All of them? Even the cranky ones who let their dogs leave deposits in your yard? How much do you love the panhandler who holds a cardboard sign day after day? What about the person you like the least? These questions give me pause. I’m fascinated by people watching and…

It’s the Little Things…
It is often the little things that keep us from accomplishing the big things. Have you seen the object lesson with two equal jars and piles of stones, pebbles and sand? If you pour the sand first into one jar, then the pebbles, there will be no room for the stones. Now place the other,…
