Living life with a chronic illness is definitely not easy. But I do my best to push through all the barriers this illness puts in front of me! In my heart and mind, I believe maintaining a positive outlook on all situations in life will carry us through to much better times! I hope you find the information that I provide both helpful and inspirational!

Retired from the University of Texas and too old to play soccer anymore. Now, in the twilight of his years, time is spent writing in this blog, hiking and exploring Texas Parks, photography, working out, gardening and tending to the five ponds he built .
Rants, humor, sarcasm, and a haiku-like substance? It's hard to know what's going to come out of our minds next.

We’re stubbornly awaiting the day people realize how special we are. Oh, did I say that out loud? Sorry.
PS, I opened my inbox, and this was on top – always the sign of a good day coming 🙂

I think we’re born the better version of ourselves, but some of us get lazy about maintaining it. Not sure about having wings…it would be pretty awkward shaving or brushing our teeth!! Lol.

I like your theory! My wings would tuck neatly away when not in use, hummmm, detachable maybe?

Can’t we though, continue to evolve and learn more about life, about care, about love.
The exceptions are noisier. The caterpillars that never became butterflies. Metaphorically.

Well, some do become moths but there is beauty there nonetheless.

Oh but we do Pam, at the end of this journey is something so magnificent, it is beyond words. The day I faced it I would never be the same again, as my journey had dared it, my belief in myself to take those steps, and the final understanding to set me free.
That is what conditional is, the cocoon to change us as it binds us…never to be the same again. And that very change forces us to understand by embracing it, face its unknown by experiencing it, and gaining the wisdom to finally crack it open to become something so much more beautiful, who now looks at everything from a whole new way.
