Chasing Happiness, Finding Discontentment
One would think at my age that I would get it, but my behavior belies me. I’m still pursuing things that I think would make me happy and content. My only somewhat mitigated comfort is knowing that I’m not alone in this never ending struggle. As I sit here ruminating about what life would be […]
Made in China
We see it on just about everything. I challenge you to go about your house and purposely look to see where your stuff is made. If I start in the garage, here’s what I find; bicycles-China, tire pump-China, basketball-China, and water toys for the kids-China. This is not an exhausted list by any means. […]
Green turned out not to be such a good deal.
As I stared out of my office window on February 2nd 2021 I was bewildered. My neighbors were pulling their kids on sleds through the streets with their Jeeps. They were just trying to make the best of a bad situation We had electricity but no water. It was the winter storm of the century. […]
Prelude to The Beast
What does the response to COVID-19 tell us about the end times? Could it be an omen of sort? I would submit to you that the answer is yes. Let me explain. In Rev 13:16-17 we read, “It also forced all the people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive on […]
Have you been propagandized?
I wrote this several months ago but thought it to be relevant today with all the crap passing for news. Mark Twain once wrote, “whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it’s time to pause and reflect.” It’s like when your Mom asked you after you got into trouble when you […]
The Silence of the Lambs
Yes, these was a movie about a deranged physiatrist named Hannibal Lector, but I’m not referring to the movie. There’s the account of Jesus Willingly offering himself up to be crucified found in Isaiah 53. I’m not talking about that. What I’m referring to is the attempt of neo-marxist movement to try and overthrow our […]
Have You Been Assimilated?
I wrote this article a few months back when we were in the middle of the pandemic. Even though we’ve seem to come out on the other side, the process of assimilation continues. One of my favorite shows on TV growing up was Star Trek. I loved watching the crew of the USS Enterprise as […]
“The Land of The Free and The Home of The Brave
We proudly exclaim that we live in the land of the free and the home of the brave, but our response as a nation to the Corona virus reveals otherwise. Benjamin Franklin once said: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” I find it […]
I Didn’t Know How to be A Racist
I was born in Nyack NY. We lived in a lower class neighborhood just the other side of NY city across from the Tappen Zee bridge. I didn’t realize it then but I lived in a very diverse neighborhood. There were Asian, Hispanic, Black, Indian, and White kids. My family moved to NY from Western […]
