Who says you can’t teach an old dog??
To me, the old adage, 'You can't teach an old dog new tricks,' strikes up the concept of a willingness to learn. By the time a dog ages, his/her willingness to learn something new wanes. The learning gathered over the years yields the rewards desired so there's little motivation to learn something new. So, too, with us. The willingness to [...]
What would you do with your winnings?
I bought tickets with some friends for two lottery drawings this week paying out over $500 million each to winners. Imagine winning that much money!

The simple joys we experience...and watching others in their simple [...]
Where do you find peace?
I find peace in watching nature, reading a good book or taking an early-morning bike ride. The truth is we tap into our peace when we do what we enjoy. Like orange juice comes from an orange because that's what's inside, peace also comes from within. We don't have to find it at all. We just open ourselves up to [...]
