Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Be a Hero

My friend Rebecca said that heroes come in more than one form. She is a smart person. Being a hero doesn’t always mean carrying a gun sometimes it means doing something more. Many times it means stepping up to do something in your community to save lives like blood donation or helping the homeless. Many times it means standing up to a bully on behalf of the weak. I am glad I can be a hero in a peaceful way.

This article has some great insight into the transformation of Bruce Jenner into Caitlyn Jenner from one person’s spiritual perspective. Perhaps we can learn something from it.
