Calm Before the Storm
Have you ever had one of those experiences where things were growing in chaotic intensity and someone standing next to you asks you to do something that you've never done before? This has happened to me, like the time ... Read More...
Selfless Service
I loved the movie "Pay It Forward", where the main theme was if somebody did something for somebody, largely unexpectedly, that they in turn did something for somebody else. That the good deed forward was passed along ... Read More...
