In the category of ‘there are no coincidences”, about a week ago I found myself watching one of the final episodes of Oprah. Although I am a devoted fan, student and teacher of her work, I have not seen a segment on the air date in literally years. I specifically tuned in because I had...Read More
I ended my last post with the sentence… Her guidance during that time did not give me any comfort. I did not grasp that a situation could be terrible but I was still suppose to be doing it. Here is what I should have written: Her guidance during that time did not give me any...Read More
It is my intent to fill in a lot of the story behind the scenes of Don’t Die. Here is today’s installment. Truth be told I enjoyed my prep day enormously. The book I was reading ended with a passage entitled Do It Anyway. I knew that passage, and I knew it well. It had...Read More

I have been cleaning house literally and figuratively. During the literal...Read More
During a discussion with a colleague this morning, I found myself asking the question: Do you measure your self-worth by your net worth?
