Oh Yeah!

April 26, 2023

While driving to the river yesterday, it occurred to me that our lives can often be compared to the various water types rolling through the Rockies. Our best days are like the glides where hardly a ripple can be viewed and we roll happily along like riding a tube on a ‘lazy river’ at Water World. […]

Calamity looming

April 25, 2023

The catcher on our Mesa College baseball team was an older gentleman by the name of Bob Engle. He had spent some time in the military we learned and was 25 years old when playing junior college ball. Third baseman Al Torre nicknamed Bob ‘The Fossil’. With Joke Biden announcing today that he plans to […]

Ouch

April 22, 2023

Daniel Evans is a terrific tennis player from Great Britain. He’s quick, feisty, multi dimensional, and a seasoned veteran. Today, he’s up against World #1 Carlos Alcarez. This gentleman is like Barry Sanders with his speed and similar to countryman Rafa with his weapons and fighting spirit. At 4-0 in the second set, it occurred […]

Vision

April 22, 2023

If I could talk to my younger self, I would just say that the path to great things is filled with a lot of stumbles, suffering, and challenges along the way. But if you have the right attitude and know that hard times will pass – and you get up each time – you will […]

Not ready for prime time

April 21, 2023

I received an invitation from a well known company to tryout for a commercial they plan to film in Denver. They indicated that no speaking was required and that those accepted would have to be good dancers. Being quite a good dancer, I applied online and waited anxiously to hear as they pay $200.00 for […]

Good fortune

April 19, 2023

It’s hard to say if it was pure luck or divine intervention via that still small voice… I guess it was a mixture of both as I’m sure the word ‘STOP’ came to me at just the right instant yesterday. You see, this very young cowboy was 1/16th. of an inch from applying diaper rash […]

Uncouth Blackbirds

March 28, 2023

I’m not sure if you can identify this object because it’s rather small. It is one of those plastic, disposable floss units and I see them regularly in parking lots like King Soopers, 24 Hour Fitness, Panera Bread, and Red Robin. In speaking with my wife, she encouraged me to go easy on our fellow […]

Procrastination

March 27, 2023

It seems my dental hygienist has been encouraging the purchase and use of a Water Pik for at least two years. After two costly crowns and receding gum lines, I figured it just might be a prudent idea. That’s when procrastination’s ugly voice kicked in…’no hurry, you can start after the weekend’. Six weeks later […]

Tanner

March 26, 2023

A very young cowboy was watching some terrific tennis from the Miami Open when he remembered a 2:00 meeting was on the agenda. Tanner seemed to be enjoying it too. Now Tanner knows that he’s not to be on the couch…that his portable bed will have to do. I turned the tv off and off […]

“Life brings suffering no matter who we are. But there is a path for all of us that leads out of this suffering and on to that joyful journey of self discovery, no matter how painful our personal history might be.” George Mumford from the book The Mindful Athlete

Sam Burns is a rapidly improving professional golfer. When asked today about his process over the last few months and moving forward, he said…,’I have a tendency to get ahead of myself so I’m trying to slow down, take it one shot at a time, and be where my feet are. Be where my feet […]

You just never know

March 1, 2023

Katy Volynets was facing a huge hurdle today in her singles match in Austin. The American was trailing 0-5 in the third set. She remained committed, competed hard for every point, and won the next three games. Katie certainly captured her opponent’s attention when she won the next two games to even the score at […]
