Be the Lighthouse

Be the Lighthouse

“Remaining steady and constant, a lighthouse never moves for a ship; instead, it shines its eternal light, waiting for the ship in distress to arrive.” A lighthouse is a tower, building, or another type of structure designed to emit light from a system of lamps and lenses and to serve as a navigational aid for maritime pilots at sea or on inland waterways.  Metaphorically speaking, a lighthouse is a person, who by remaining steady and constant, has the ability to guide others during otherwise turbulent times.  While much of the world is in turmoil, the human lighthouse provides the stability to weather […]

A Land Called Terra

The land is idyllic; a peaceful refuge tucked away in a growing city of 70,000 people.  We call this piece of property Terra which means “earth.”  It also happens to be the same name as the property in Gone with the Wind (different spelling: Tara) that Scarlett O’Hara tried desperately to save following the Civil War.  There is an odd eeriness in similarity to our current world situation.  We can all feel the strains of the world showing their hairline fractures that could very soon be fully broken.  We are all witnessing friends and families being subtly fractured ever so

We were now officially into hour two of knowing each other, and Adi had become the victim of a time-honored tradition when visiting Paris.  She was pickpocketed—faster, maybe, than anyone in the history of modern civilization. “Are you sure?” I asked, trying to remain calm. “I just had it back at Notre Dame.  I know I had it because I sent a text to my sister telling her that I had arrived.  It was

Wildflowers

Smelling the Roses (and Bluebonnets)

Bluebonnets: A Texas Springtime Adventure Spring is in the air and with it comes the wonder of Texas wildflowers.  It’s become somewhat of a rite in passage in Texas to take a Sunday drive through the country roads to drink in the majesty of the myriad of colors that paint the landscape of ranches and remote, endless swaths of land that lay pretty much untouched on the outskirts of the major cities.  Adi and I decided to take our annual drive twice this weekend in celebration of her birthday, which happens every April 14. Both of us have felt old
