Momentum

The commentators were discussing what separates the top four players from the next tier of up and coming stars like Kyrgios and Zverev. One comment was telling. It had nothing to do with serve, ground strokes, or ability to cover the court. The two players noted above excel in all of these areas and more. […]

Perspective

The eyes of a child light up the day. There is no worry for a toddler’s vocabulary has little room for such grownup concerns. Give em three meals a day, some slick looking pj’s, and their favorite baseball cap and all is good. When does the magic fade where we get caught up in the […]

First impression

March 31, 2017

Dogs are defenders. Loyal and true. It seems they are always there looking out for you. But on the first day…they can appear like a lion. Why…they’ve even been known to get the little ones crying. But sooner or later the truth becomes clear. Hardly ever will you find a friend so dear.

The rumor mill is alive and well. The Denver Post is reporting that Tom Hanks will soon be directing a tennis version of the movie Forrest Gump. Christian Slupe will play the lead role and from the looks of it, the casting chief should win an Oscar.

Faith

Everything in your life, the ups and downs, the mountain tops and the valleys, the highs and the lows, the raises and the rejections, the good and bad are all working together to accomplish good. Be patient. Trust God. Let Him mold you during the difficult seasons to equip you for the assignment ahead. From […]

Opening Day

March 30, 2017

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea, Let us swear allegiance to a land that’s free. Let us all be grateful for a land so fair, As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer: God bless America, land that I love, Stand beside her and guide her Through the night with a […]

Persistence

The longer you hang in there, the greater the chance that something will happen in your favor. No matter how hard it seems, the longer you persist, the more likely your success. Jack Canfield

Awe

The Milky Way Galaxy has over 100 thousand million stars. Scientists also report that there are over 100 billion galaxies in the universe. Maybe your getting stuck in traffic or having to deal with a petulant child isn’t that big a deal in the grand scheme of things.

‘You think I don’t understand English…but you’re mistaken. I heard you talking about sushi and a movie and know your plans don’t include me. Fine! I’ll just sit here bored out of my mind for four hours while you two paint the town. Don’t think for a minute that the customary doggie treat is gonna […]

There will be days you’d like to forget. Ones where the odds seem stacked against you. Take heart…it could be much worse.

Belief

March 28, 2017

There really are no limits to what you can do. No shackles that can’t be loosed so you can fly. You are an eagle…an astronaut…rolled into one. May tomorrow be the day you believe it. Trust, my child, and you can achieve it.

Hope

March 28, 2017

Sure we have gridlock in Washington. There’s discontent on both sides as our election clearly showed. A racial divide became a chasm and no quick solution is in sight. The haves seem to have it all and to the poor, it seems there’s no door to the American Dream. The left and the right have […]
