A Message About Kindness
Kindness is not an act. It is a lifestyle.
Be kind but have your boundaries. It is also kindness.
Leader or Follower, Maybe Servant
I don’t know how much of a leader I am. I tend to follow more. However, I would like to introduce a 3rd option, servant. To serve takes a unique mindset that you must give of yourself and help others. I suppose some characteristics of leadership and following go into being a servant. What the world needs now, more than ever are leaders and followers who are willing to get their hands dirty and to serve their fellow human beings.

Happy Mother’s Day
Today is Mother’s Day and I want to salute all moms who are true heroes. Some mothers are biological, some through adoption, and some care for kids who are in need, through various situations. Of course, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the wonderful pet moms who have two and four-legged kids. Many parents out there are both mother and father and that is to be saluted. Some have strained relationships with their mothers and that cannot be ignored. No matter what I hope you all have someone you can call mom to be there for you. Thank you Moms of all persuasions.
No Phone Friday
Hello friends, I hope your day was great. The weekend is here.
I grew up in a time before cell phones. I survived. Fast forward to the times we live in today and I am kinda lost without my phone. Disconnecting every once and a while is not a bad thing and to survive 8 hours without my Google Pixel 5a is not a death sentence. Sure it’s inconvenient but I made it. I was productive at work. You have to adapt but isn’t that what humans do. Some people have downgraded to a pre-smartphone device such as a flip phone or the immortal Nokia.
My Mrs. is having to wait for a replacement for her phone that is not working now. It won’t arrive for a couple of days.
So at the end of the day, I have it back. Perhaps I need more time away from it.
