Farewell CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has been a ground breaking show for 15 years. It told stories of a crime lab in Las Vegas led by some really smart people whose mission was to solve crimes using science. There will not be a show like this again that made this much impact on television again. Thank you for entertaining us and inspiring many to pursue the work of justice.

From The Archives

I will be bringing from time to time archived posts from old blogs I have. You who have been with me for a couple of months or a few weeks might enjoy some of my previous posts. I also think your feedback will be interesting to check out. Thanks for following along and checking out what I have to say.

Sundays and Sunday Afternoons

I have found that Sunday afternoons are about relaxation and renewal. There is a slowed rhythm of this time of the week that allows you to enjoy your favorite pursuits with leisure.

For me, it’s chill time after the morning of being at Church. It’s that time at worship where I am lifted up spiritually. This being the Sabbath also allows time to reconnect with God. There is also a time of spending time with the important people in my life.

On my Sunday’s after church I spend time with my wife where we catch up on TV, have lunch and engage in corporate and individual activities. Today for example we watched last nights Saturday Night Live and then she read and I did some stuff on the computer. Also we napped which is a good thing.

Our world is full of chaos. Having a time for yourself, regaining yourself and having some recreational fun can be good for you. Getting away from it all even at home can benefit everyone. Also there’s nothing wrong with unplugging a bit (advice I really suck at).

Enjoy these times. Sunday afternoons can refuel your soul and give you some control back on your life. Have fun friends!

Blogger or Writer or Both

is there a difference between writers and bloggers. This is a question I have often wondered about. Perhaps its the content and the stories they are telling. Short form posts vs. long form works I guess could be how you tell one from another. When you see a post are there images, sounds, video involved?

I guess you could ask the individual what is their focus and what is inspiring them to do what they do. Are they wanting to take us on a journey or perhaps to paint a picture using words or perhaps is their work to be a chronological snapshot of an event or a thought that randomly popped in their heads.

Maybe its about curating things that have meaning and inspire someone to dream and imagine. I think no matter if you are just a blogger or just a writer you are responsible for creating something new, to be original, to inspire others who need it. Each creation is a personal reflection and a perspective only you have.

I think words matter, I think pictures and video can sometimes tell the story and perhaps a song is all you need to tell others how you feel.

So which one are you, are you both?

Three Weeks Ago

We got on this plane and flew to Florida for vacation three weeks ago. That was a great trip and I am ready to go back. I am glad we made great memories. Hopefully someday.

Fiesta Soup

We are having this family favorite for dinner tonight. The weather is getting to be just ideal for a slightly spicy soup that is nourishing and good too.
