You are 27 years old. You are married. You are a husband. You are a son. You are a brother. You are a friend. You can accomplish anything you desire, but you do not have to do it all at once. I think that life gets murky sometimes, especially for me when I feel that …
Mirage? I think not…
The heat index will approach 107 today. This stifling heat can lead to a mirage if left outside too long. Those mirages are glamorized in Hollywood, humorous by making light of someone wandering through the desert only to stumble upon what appears to be a lush oasis.

Winter’s Stage
Cold weather has a way of resetting us. It can center us if we allow it. Each season has its time and place. Each season has a meaning both horticulturally as well as internally. Winter is the way of the hermit, it is still, it is a time of reflection. Winter gives us all the …
