I have been observing alot of situations in the news and in the events that happen around me…I’ve come to the conclusion that the secret in overcoming any challenges or events in life has to be in deciding not to let any circumstances or event define the rest of your life. I think a [...]

Ok…this is seriously outrageous. Little Caylee Anthony, who was murdered in Florida, is the focus of an important court motion. It is shameful that not only was the 2 year old murdered and thrown away, like an animal left on the side of the road after being hit. However, it gets even worse because, there are [...]

Parting is such sweet sorrow…and I know this to be true. Today, I lost Bessie. We weren’t together long enough. I had only known her for about 5-6 years. Long enough to appreciate her…long enough to know all of her faults and her good features. We were pretty much inseperable for most of this [...]

People are funny; when things get tight…their fists often get tighter; but not always. This year, like no other year in recent memory, people are hurting. They are hurting in many areas financially.
