To be resilient is to be flexible yet hearty, buoyant...adaptable. A resilient person is someone who tends to recover from or adjust to misfortune or change. I bet we all have someone who pops to mind, or maybe even a few come to mind. I know, for myself, a few people come to mind. As … Continue reading Week 9: Resilient

Week 7: Trump
Whether you are a Trump lover or a Trump hater, you can’t deny he is on a winning streak. His numbers are incredible, over the top, tremendous…. America has never seen anything like it, its big-ly killin it- best it has ever been. It's true -or at least partially true- when broken down, there are … Continue reading Week 7: Trump
Week 6: Conquer
When you hear the word conquer, what comes to mind first? Scaling a mountain? Overcoming your fears? My mind goes straight to Gladiators, Crusades and war with blood and gore.

The word sincere or actually sincerely is so often … Continue reading Week 2. Sincere
Week 1: Kindness
When I think of a random act of kindness first thing that comes to mind is paying for the person in line behind you which is very thoughtful and nice but feels a little superficially kind to me or maybe even just nice….. But if you talk about paying off student lunch debt, that carries a little more kindness- kids need food, the dude behind you won't go hungry if you don't pay for their beverage.
In retrospect, the future…
