Pushing for success drops my life off the radar screen. Power can propel me out of range, the center of my life overshot in an attempt to be a winner. I am stripped of my commonality in striving for singularity. Looking for acclaim ...

- I did not start my day with the thought that I would wind up in a long sprint to the finish, nor did I even dream of a 2000+ victory lap. As I prepare to make it an early, tired night, however, I can reflect proudly on having accomplished just that.

After the storm, there is peace. I am still composing myself but nevertheless, I am back on track.I am just amazed at how God can be really unfair, all the time. Yes, God is unfair... unfairly good if you ask me. Why? ...

- So many events have surfaced in the lives of many since the beginning of the year 2008-I being one of those lives, and to speak the truth, many of us have experienced much failure because of the choices made.
