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 .

Reminds me of one of my favorite Nelson Mandela quotes:
“No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”

I wholeheartedly agree Pam. Isn’t it strange that the things that come to us naturally, like love, so easily get pushed aside by things we’re taught, like hate, jealousy, racism and greed?

Most certainly dear lady, and that very emotion (and others), are the teachers to guide us back to the love that is our natural state. And when we arrive it is with a most profound wisdom in the truth of what unconditional is 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

I hold the opposite view. That we are born with both the capactity to both love and hate – but who we love and who we hate is taught.

I watch children who only see the best of people. Love comes naturally and easily, I think. Society shows us otherwise.
