Just take a step, One single step, Each one leads to one more. And with each step, Each single step, You’re farther than you were. So take a chance, Take just one chance, You thought you’d never take. Then find your life, And seize that life, Go live the life you make. It’s harder far,…

Working as a security guard late at night gives the brain time to wander. <u>The Nightguards’ Lament </u> A wind through empty windows shifts Some hanging plastic sheets. As rhythmic as the crashing surf. Sounds almost like heartbeats. It’s late so very late at night In truth more early morn. I walk alone through cold…

My Facebook feed has been filling up with posts referencing Clint Eastwood’s recent interview with Esquire magazine in which he slammed political correctness and referred to this as “the Pussy Generation”.

THE REASON FOR THE SEASON The reason for the season isn’t just another gift. It’s the kindness done for others that will give your heart a lift. It’s not the presents you receive, it’s not the ones you’ve bought. It’s smiles, hugs and faces dear, that will not be forgot. So instead of asking for…
