The notion of a infant child coming to change the world is a crazy idea and the fact that child grew up to be a hippie and a community organizer is even more crazy. Our world doesn’t need bravado and arrogance, it needs humility, kindness, inclusion and peace. Jesus came into the world to show us how to live, love and laugh and party and be with those who society cast aside. Instead of greatness we need mercy and grace.

Something About Being Good
I think being good means giving grace to those who you don’t always like. It’s hard sometimes but it makes you an even better person for doing so. You might be the one person that can impact their lives for the better and everyone wins then. Now this doesn’t mean you let people walk over you, it just means offering some mercy that was once afforded you at one time in your life. Change sometimes comes from kindness shown.
Something About Tumblr
A friend of mine deleted her Tumblr blog after being harassed by some who had issues with the fandom they feel passionate about. I thought Tumblr was a cool and safe place for everyone. It seems it isn’t. I’m sorry she did that but it seems Tumblr has a way to go to become that place of open mindedness and true freedom of expression. Fandoms are highly personal things so when one is attacked because of uninformed people saying ignorant things then perhaps it’s time to run along. I’m glad to be on WordPress.
Something About Service
What someone does for someone else or an organization should be considered something of value. In many cases services rendered is a very valuable asset. Diminishing the contributions of those who work hard is not a good thing to do. I think people and what offer to a cause is the driving force behind a movement or a cause. You don’t get far without good people making things happen. A balance of praise and feedback can make the services better for all concerned. So when you are looking to build something up and make it even more valuable a good word or two can go a long way in advancing what you want to achieve.
Something About My Work At Blood Assurance
It’s been a very challenging couple of days for me professionally and a little personally. The work of me and my team at Blood Assurance our regional blood bank is vitally important to saving lives. Without our organization many peoples lives over the years would be in jeopardy. Yesterday and Today people of all races, creeds, nationalities and genders came to our doors to donate a huge part of themselves, their blood. Today I helped over 100 people set aside their time to come donate. Those folks are important in that they will have an opportunity to save 300 lives. That is something to be thankful for.
Something About Being Wrong
I’m never above saying sorry for anything that I do or say that is hurtful or offensive. I admit when I’m wrong about something. Reconciliation and forgiveness matter.
