Be The Answer To Someone’s Prayer

I’ve felt this pall over me the last few weeks.  It’s persistent, like a cold that won’t go away.  It is especially prevalent in the mornings right as I awake and continues right up until the time I go to sleep at night.  It’s nagging feeling that leaves me feeling unfulfilled, without a purpose, and mourning a time of once was.  It doesn’t make much sense because I have been given so much, and there is little in the way of needing anything.  It has more that sense of perceived discouragement that lingers throughout the day. Some may call this …

Your Most Amazing Ideal Day

What Makes an Ideal Day? Have you ever wondered what the ideal day would look like for you? We often get caught up in our daily routine and forget to take a moment to think about what truly brings us joy and fulfillment.  So often, the hustle and bustle of life keeps us distracted from asking a couple of very important questions:   What makes me happy?  What do I enjoy doing each day?  What fulfills my soul? When we begin asking these questions we start to see where and how we are out of alignment with what our soul …

Meet Arch Nemesis, Shorty Carter

The following is an excerpt from my new book, Memoirs of a Renaissance Man (available of Amazon) Arch Nemesis, Shorty Carter   In the evening, Adi and I left for a quick errand; it was already dark outside, and the night was coming to an end.  As we got in the car, I mentioned to Adi that the eclipse seemed to pass without anything unwelcoming coming into our life (eclipses are known to bring seismic changes, some undesirable). As we drove down the driveway toward the main road, Cannon Drive (named after Adi’s grandmother’s family), we saw two eyes glowing …

Bitter Enemies: The Return of Shorty Carter

I have a confession to make; I’m not necessarily proud of this, but as they say, all’s fair in love and war.  This is a tale with heroes and villains, depending on the individual perspective, but no matter the point of view—this was a war—make no mistake about it.  Sometimes war affects a man’s psyche in ways that cause him to behave entirely out of character.  This was certainly the case with me.  I may be getting ahead of myself, so I’ll try to start as close to the beginning of this tale as possible. Adi and I moved to …

Unleash Infinite Possibilities!

When we open our mind to infinite possibilities, we unleash our potential.   Winter has arrived.  The temps dropped to the low 30s and when we awoke it was so cold that Shorty found his way inside the house through the kitty door.  He was sitting silently under the kitchen table hoping I didn’t notice him.  It was too cold to force him to go back outside so I wished Shorty a good morning and let him sit there until he was brave enough to confront the elements again.  He didn’t stay long.  As soon as the house starts moving …

The Ultimate Gallbladder and Liver Cleanse

So You Want to Do a Gallbladder and Liver Cleanse? (An excerpt from my new book, Memoirs of a Renaissance Man.) Anyone who has ever met Adi knows that she can convince almost anyone to try something unconventional.  I call her Lucy after Lucy Ricardo on I Love Lucy.  Lucy always convinced Ricky of doing things that he wasn’t particularly fond of doing; this is where I come in.  I am Ricky to Adi’s Lucy.  Whenever she says, “I have an idea” I know I’m in for trouble (in a good way).  Adi informed me a couple of weeks back …
