Honestly Living
As I have mentioned before, I have come across a TV show that I just can't get enough of. I have found, and thoroughly enjoy, The Last Alaskans. One review I read on this show used a word to describe this show, that I would also use, intoxicating. Completely intoxicating.

Freedom of the Truth
I know we talked, I remember our conversation. I was certain of our focus, our cerebral participation. The truths we discussed didn't vanish when the silence began. But rather they need to be with us, always at hand. So, day by day, it's our job to manage our mental inventory. Our own internal check and balance for each spoken story. The words we speak, the actions we take, are the story we Continue Reading...
