New Year Old Goals

I love the freshness of a new year. Now maybe it's just me. But I continue to notice that my goals each year are about the same. Now I may rephrase them. To make them seem new.

They Said It Would Never Be A Hit

I love music, especially Christmas music. Songwriter Irving Berlin was confident in the tune. Telling his arranger, it was the best song anybody ever wrote. Neither he nor the studio thought it would be a favorite. The song, of course, was White Christmas. And it didn't exactly hurt Bing Crosby's... Sign in to see full entry.

Curiosity is a great sign of intelligence. Yet even the most curious seldom seek to know everything. Our focus is... Sign in to see full entry.

We often take for granted how important it is to surround yourself with good, positive people. I find myself using this phrase repeatedly. " It Will Change Your Life."

Seniors Working in their 80's

First of all, Happy Friday to everyone. I came across a story about seniors in their 80s who wished they could retire. It immediately made me pause. We often measure reality by those we know.
