I was reminded yesterday of a song by the late Harry Chapin. It came out in 1979 and it’s called “Circle.” In the song, Harry sings: “All my life’s a circle; Sunrise and sundown; Moon rolls thru the nighttime; Till the daybreak comes around. All my life’s a circle; And I can’t tell you why;…

When you think of the word “weapon,” what comes to mind? A handgun? An AR-15? A knife? A bazooka? (Do they still make those?) What if I told you that we all have a dangerous weapon and we have the potential to use it EVERY SINGLE DAY! I read, A LOT, and one of the…

I think I post a picture of this tree on my socials every year. This is a Weeping Cherry Tree we have in our backyard. It was a gift from a Confirmation class my wife and taught oh…. probably twenty years ago now. Oh and yes, there are lights in the tree. My wife found…
