Closure
Never underestimate the importance of getting or giving closure. For twenty plus years, I waited for someone to return for closure. That day never arrived. Because of the harsh words exchanged and the distance erected on both sides, I spent two decades in bitter...
Houston
It’s been several years since I’ve been to Houston. Last week, I got a last-minute opportunity to return for a brief visit. A day trip for work took me to the Post Oak area of the city, in one of its two downtowns. Yes, two. Houston is stretched out to cover the two...
Piling up the Pennies
Have you ever felt like you were stuck on the financial black-hole hamster wheel? You know that sensation you have that you’re running in place to get ahead of the game only to realize that you are still only hovering inches above the financial sinkhole of suck? If...

Eighteen months ago, I made the decision to leave my comfort zone and go back into a hybrid work arrangement. Thinking I could handle it after two years of isolation at home during the pandemic, I gleefully decided to take a position that would push me further into my...
Personal Training: Working it Out
Don’t you just hate when you plateau? After three years of intensive hot yoga and power walking 20K steps a day, I finally hit a wall. Workouts were suddenly not producing the results I wanted (and needed). I decided to take a short (OK, 3 months) break from my...
Movie Review: Sound of Freedom
For months now, I’ve been waiting for the release of Angel Studios movie Sound of Freedom, which explores one man’s story about the depths of human trafficking. Not a warm fuzzy heart feeling flick to be certain but one I truly believed I needed to see. The film deals...
