When I decided I was not going to pursue the career I studied for or a masters in professional counseling I asked myself what I was going to do so I would not die just as a miserable old cab driver? The answer I came up with was writing. I have written one romance novel that surprises no one more than me. I am not a natural writer. In fact, I had t

What would you do if you knew of a group of people who only spend their time making promises and nothing following through on their promises? Better yet, what would you do if you knew that these promise breakers actually threaten your security by thei r inaction and obsession on their own well-being? Well that is what you have had in America for a ve

This cannot be politics as usual in America. Politics as usual got the democrats elected by being anti-war and lying to the American people about the importance of the battle in Iraq. In reality, it does not matter. When the republicans where in the majority, before their defeat in Nov 2007, they were worst obstructionist to President Bush’s’ policies then

Some of the issues that come from military conflict are life, death, and our relationship to God. People who have repented of their sin and have Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior know that no matter what they confront, if they should leave this world they will be welcomed in heaven. One of the reasons I do not write on a regular basis is that som

I cannot be about hate. I know many of us on the conservative side may like the sport of hating little Miss Hillary dickory crock. She has lied and we know it. Even worse, she acts as if we are all living in cave and have no clue what kind of a person she is. Now, the news media likes to think they can pick and promote a presidential candidate as i

In life, we have the opportunity to choose bad philosophy or good philosophy. Unfortunately, many of us choose the wrong way. I have seen how we involve ourselves in decisions just from having an idea that has to do with a need. For example, you meet someone on Tuesday at 3pm and by 415pm the same day you are engaged to be married. Another example

Today, I will write on problems in marriage do to failure to fulfill a marriage partner’s intimacy needs. First, allow me to identify what I mean about intimacy needs. I am not just talking about sex. As people, we need to make connections with people that bring joy to our lives. Here, I am talking about the connections bring joy, not necessarily the perso

Some of the great issues of the day on conservative talk radio were the golden globes, immigration, single women, and Fox’s 24 program. I like entertainment and though I know the entertainment field is putting out garbage I think we would be a worst society if there were no music, movies, or TV programs. On immigration from Mexico I say why don’t the

Of everything, I heard and read today what got my attention most is the stories of Martin Luther King, the civil rights leader in the 1960’s. From her beginning, America has gone through many different challenging crises. Today, it seems that many see America in her biggest crisis. The answer to some is just run and hide and everything will be okay.

We do not consider many things. I was thinking today that if I were wrong about God and religion then I would die having reached a point in my life where I value good money management, personal responsibility, and human life. However, if I am right then many people are going to have a rude awakening in hell. I think our own arrogance can g

Sometimes you say stuff but you just do not want to believe it. I have said stuff such as democrats only want to make president Bush look bad. The amount of sinister energy necessary for this deliberate effort to skew the facts in order to cause the president trouble is beyond the human ability to comprehend. However, there they were in front of t

Tonight the president is going to speak to the nation. The tragedy is that even before he has spoken the naysayers are already trashing the content of the speech. On previous occasions, I have written about the popularity of putting some one down just for the sake of putting them down. I know that many practice this sport. In addition, I know that

The big debate of the day is the president’s plan to increase the amount of military personnel in Iraq. I have heard several democrats say that Americans spoke on Nov. 7, 2007 and they do not want a troop increase in Iraq. Again, 60 percent of Americans do not think the security of the nation is important enough to be bothered to vote. The elections

I will start today by saying that we really do not know much. Any person who makes a living out of true study and investigation I will at least listen to what they say. However, listening does not necessarily mean I am going to agree with them. I think it is sad that we live in a world where every one has convinced them selves that they are the sole authori

This news story I heard back in the days leading in to Christmas 2006. To me we are going in to the third week after Christmas. The reason I write about it is that I work in the industry that is the backdrop for this story.

I am sitting here watching the official ceremony of president Ford’s funeral at Washington D.C. At a time Jesus Christ once was asked something, where he responded “…let the dead bury the dead”. When the body dies the soul leaves and is received in heaven or the other place. At the second, Mr. Ford’s body stopped functioning he appeared where he is

We are foolish if we think that we can expect justice from the powers at be. I am sure that there is no reason for people in authority to work with a common sense understanding. In addition, I am sure fair play and respect is out the window. Those of us expecting teachers, doctors, police, judges, politicians, and any other authority figure to listen to us

The mission was to unseat a very dangerous man in a new terrorist environment. I do not believe that Sadam Huesien (and no I do not want to spell his name right) would invest in WMD for no purpose.

How do you maintain you integrity? Would it help to know who you are? Moreover, how much can we really ask of our selves? This is after all a complicated world.

Work does suck. It is suppose to suck. If it did not suck, you would want to spend more time at work then at home. Another point is that your employer is not to blame for everything that went wrong in your life. They have given you a job and it is up to you to use it to accomplish some personal goals. I think that many are missing half of the empl
