This year, I had the privileged of crossing paths with a most interesting person. I did almost nothing to bring about our meeting. I find this to be important for two reasons. First, some of the most amazing people that I have met and life paths I have followed have come about through no action…

I’ve been struggling with something. I’ve had a few rough days in the last month, despite everything being pretty much great. I know that God is and provides everything I could ever need, a lot of what I want, and a whole lot of what I couldn’t even imagine. However, sometimes, when I’m feeling low,…

It’s funny how my perception of past events changes. I’m notorious for over-analyzing everything. But, as is usually the case, not nearly enough evidence is provided to come to any rational conclusion. So, I usually settle for the irrational and this is a tricky business.
