Celebrating Wannabes
Shortly after I watched a dolphin arc through the air above the blue, blue waters off the shore of Daytona around 7:00 this morning, my attention was captured by the simple elegance and innate majesty of a V of nine brown pelicans. They didn’t even know the alphabet, yet they adjusted their ranks to maintain ...
How do you get here from there?
With the August 1 release date of my new nonfiction, faith-based self-help book Too Blessed to be Stressed peeking around the corner, I’ve found myself contemplating how on God’s green earth I got here.

More like the “How can I fully engage in living while I’m passing through this life?” kind of practical fare that sneaks into my brain betwixt rising at 6 am, ...

It starts out with wine and roses, a luscious wedding cake, gorgeous beaded dress and the promise of endless joy-filled tomorrows. But then something mysterious happens. Somewhere along the winding pathway of unity during the next few years, erosion creates a few potholes, roadblocks, and maybe even a detour or two. The disillusioned bride and ...
Lovin’ Those Grace Kisses
Okay, I realize I’m delinquent in announcing the long awaited birth of Baby Blaine – my very first grand. I stand guilty as charged by my faithful readers who have scolded me soundly for my omission. He’s two weeks old today and cute as a newborn porcupine (have you ever seen one? They really are ...
