Of Pedaling and Prayer
The homeless man straddling his bike sighed deeply, shaking his head. “I can’t breathe today. I stopped living when he died.”

In an Instant
Here I was, settled in for a quiet morning with pups in the house beside me. A cloudy morning with a few showers. Yes, I was aware of the potential for severe thunderstorms. Then, as I was watching one of my favorite shows, the lights went out. It was pitch black outside and rain fell as thick as pea-soup. Suddenly, hurricane force winds hit and I thought “this is it!” Within a minute or two the storm passed, generator back-up kicked in, I let out a sigh of relief, and I thanked the good Lord for sparing us. What I didn’t realize was the devastation awaiting us outside.

Sweetness of the day awaits
I remember how my older son, Marty, loved to crawl and climb as a baby. He used to climb out of his crib at the end, make a leaping monkey jump to the dresser—a mere foot away—and then use the knobs on the drawers to descend to the floor. It wasn’t just acrobatics but an early sign of his adventurous spirit.

What Wikipedia Can’t Tell You
I grew up in Dallas. As a youngster, I thought my home was merely the few square blocks surrounding our house. As I grew older, my world expanded to a much larger metroplex, state, entire nation, and other parts of the world. For the longest time I considered Dallas as my “home.” Then we moved.

Looking for the good in life
Guy Stuff has been taking a break for the last few weeks while making room for some great information on shopping locally from my friend Lee Elliott and the New Boston SIDC. Man, that is some good stuff. I hope you read the last three editorial pieces from Lee and I hope you see even better the advantage to shopping locally. Spending our dollars at home helps all of us have a better place to call home, wherever that home might be.

Slow sinking grace
As a girl in Hot Springs, Arkansas, I found myself wading in Lake Hamilton—not exactly swimming, since I never really mastered the art of water ballet. Instead, I was a sixyear-old with two left feet and lacked swimming skills.

What Wikipedia Can’t Tell You
The definition of family is “a group of people who are related by blood, marriage, or adoption, and who share a significant history and future.” Family can also include chosen family members, or people who love and support you. In truth, your family are the people that love and take care of you.

Why is shopping locally so important?
Quite simply, it encourages prosperity and improves the quality of life where it means the most, in New Boston. In a world where people are feeling less impactful, a way to contribute to improving one’s quality of life and improving our surroundings, is by “voting with one’s dollars.”
