To be able to recognize each and every day as a new day is a blessing and should not be taken for granted! My perception of this thing we call life has changed! Not only changed but in all actuality, I now know how […]

my days are now hazy-time passes so slowly-don’t know what feels real anymore-am i in a dream?-or am i awake?-what inning is this?-what’s the score?-can’t tell what the reason to begin a new season-continue to knock on my door-nightmares assault […]

wherever i go whenever i sleep i’m careful now of the paths i keep my life is now changed so steps i arrange keeping faith in God i will not estrange my paths i see clearly i hold to faith […]

I’ve started many projects in my life. I can say that some I finished and some I didn’t. This project… THIS PROJECT though is a matter of life and death for me. There is no “maybe I’ll do it later” […]

This is just another average Fathers Day for just about every average father except me! I’m not saying that I’m special in any way. It’s just that God has given me the time  to witness my third Father’s Day since […]

As my 3rd anniversary of being diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer draws near I noticed how I now handle things. Throughout my life I’ve never considered myself to be a fighter. Now I have no choice. My life has […]

to see where i am you have to be where i’m at-someone’s opinion of me does not becomes my reality-environment doesn’t define the quality of life i live, my faith does!-to see where i am you have to be where i’m at-idle conversation […]

You shouldn’t be! I know it’s hard sometimes, but God is always there! You see, at first I was confused! I kept asking the question, “why me?” As time went by I began to understand “why me?” I now understand and actually accept […]

although this world is beautiful they’re some that aren’t real-they walk and talk like they’re alive but inside are hearts of steel-you try to recognize and see them by the cards they deal-they’d stomp and massacre your heart for they […]

we unnecessarily cling to things in life that do not define us-it’s as if the hurtful parts of life are more important than life itself-the only way to reasonably live life is to let go-let go of the past and […]

This is a subject that I’ve become an expert in. I have to be dauntless throughout my endeavors in life now! Honestly, I can’t even begin to imagine what my life would be like without faith! Looking back at how I lived pre-cancer makes me […]

Since the vicissitudes in my life have reeked havoc, I no longer have the time to let beauty pass me by unnoticed. This is a wonderful world and it is filled with beautiful things. If you look closely at this world and […]

This validation comes via my perception! To understand life we must learn how to love life first. That’s one way to garner attention. If I read this statement years ago I would’ve never believed it true! You see, my life is no […]

when dawn breaks at first light-morning dew puts up no fight-violence ends from past nights-to feel safe is one’s right-everything from God begins-the love He has for us won’t end-believe in truth we won’t descend-the cost to life we all […]
