Reflections on the Coronavirus: Hitting Close to Home
Regardless of where you stand on “preparedness”, the sheer disregard for community is against what we stand for as a nation. What’s more, it’s against what many of us stand for as Christians.

Thankful 30: Day 5
Day Five: I am thankful for VOTING 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 I took my daughter with me to hit the polls today. 10 important propositions we’re on the ballots for Texans to consider. I am so saddened that people often miss these elections because it isn’t presidential, therefore not important. Remember y’all: the president might sit in the…

Thankful 30: Day 1
Will I keep up with this? I don’t know. Either way I believe it is important to give thanks and reflect on good things during this season–and all the time. The holiday season has a tendency to raise spirits and stir up all the feels that other times of the year just don’t reach in…

2016 Republican Candidate Review
I am not going to talk about each candidate. I am not even going to analyze their standpoints, there are enough articles that do that. These are merely my opinions. If I did not mention them, they weren’t even an option for me to begin with. Night before last FOX aired the first prime-time Republican debate…

If you aren’t going to eat it, if it isn’t endangering you, don’t kill it.
I have the same philosophy on animals as I do humans. If it is not hurting you in anyway, or potentially going to hurt you—don’t kill it. I am from a rural community where hunting is standard.

“Well I wasn’t wrong…”
Politics, religion, taboo subjects for work. I value my friends that have stuck around despite disagreements; you help me to have no regrets about the friends I’ve lost or will never have, simply because they will not listen to my side of the story. Being silent is not something I believe in. Opinions and thoughts…
