The recent political season was very frustrating to me. I’m surprised by the fact that so many people are oblivious to reality and insensitive to the hurting and helpless of the world.

Everyone of us has some semblance of a daily routine. From the time we get up in the morning until the time that we go to bed, we try to maintain some sort of order to our existence. However, life has a way of shaking us from the dullness of our conceived consistency with a…

The last day was a bittersweet experience for me. It was the conclusion of one stage of my life that had been good to me, but it was also the end of something that I really needed to be ended. My time in the military had been a wonderful blessing to me. Yet, it contained…

Where would I want to be if I could teleport to anywhere in the world? There is no one place in this world that I would like to be more than on the continent of Africa. If I could stand safely on the plains of the Serengeti, I’d love to be there. I’m surrounded by…
