Today is the close of a chapter, but hardly the end of a story. In the midst of the current coronavirus epidemic worldwide, we are seeing the cancellations/suspension of play across many sports, suspension of education at all levels, and really any event/gathering with a crowd is being called off. It is a fair move…
As human nature provides, all of us want to have control of what goes on around us. That way, we could make everything be on our own timeline. We could make everything align with the exact idea we have on how something should work. We could make things so much easier for ourselves. But,…
As I sat and watched my favorite team, The Philadelphia Eagles, play football last night, I kept finding reasons to expect the worst. They were legitimate reasons to be skeptical (injuries, bad defensive play at times, etc.), but it wasn't good for me to keep thinking about the bad. Not only were those bad things…
Sometimes life can feel like a whirlwind. 80 things going on at once, and 79 of them are stressful or things to worry about. We always have something going on, so it is hard to find those moments of relaxation. When I do get that time of relaxation, I find myself concerned. (I'm already…
Golf season is right around the corner, and for most of the summer, my swing has felt weird. Not bad, just weird. After hearing from a few people that have watched my swing and working on some things, my hands seem to be moving quicker than my body. I'm not in sync! When I was…

Grinding, as some might say. Also, I've been writing (shocker). I have been writing down little things each day, reminders of…
I always talk about how much I learn each day in life. Lesson after lesson comes, and I am so thankful for all of them. The most recent lesson I've learned is putting my cares before my fears. I often find myself in situations that are controlled by my fears. My fear will overtake my…
If this were a year ago, I would be scared. I would be questioning myself and wondering if this is exactly what I wanted out of life. Where do I want to go from here? The future used to be a major question for me - but I know where I am headed. I…
Life is a long road full of twists and turns. This road also contains long stretches of straight, smooth terrain. This road also contains detours, speed bumps, and a few random objects that make you swerve out of control at times. But in the end, the goal of life is to stay moving forward on…
