It is not so bad…

There is a lot of turmoil going on around us in California. Especially with the elections so close, there is a lot of political punches being thrown. The state is on fire and the cost of living keeps on rising. All of that said, I am happy! Life is good! I have a lot of…

High in the Sky

Today as I was returning from my class, listening to the jazz station on the radio, High Hopes sung by Frank Sinatra came on. I am slowly learning that if the mind can think it, it can be achieved. I realize that it is not easy; there is going to be some hard work and…

Love and Support

Today I am very grateful for all of the love and support that I receive from family and friends. That is it. It is that simple. Peace and love to you all!

Ahoy!

This afternoon I took two different tests for my boating class. The tests made up my mid-term for the class as well as certifying me with U.S. Sailing/ U.S. Powerboating for their Safe Power Boating course as well as the State of California’s Safe Boaters Card. So there were two tests that constituted the one…

Blessings

Today is a very simple post. I am grateful for so many of my blessings. I read today a passage written by Carlos Santana regarding unconditional love. The man is a great musician, writer, spiritual guide and a wonderful person. His writing made me think about unconditional love and what does it mean. The followers…

Music Genius

On Tuesday, October 6 2020, one of Rock n’ Roll’s legendary guitar players passed away. I cannot say that I am sad, because I never knew Eddie Van Halen personally. I cannot even say that I will miss his music, because there is so much of it recorded. I feel for his family and friends,…

Ain’t Life Grand

Right now I am choosing not to watch the Presidential debate between Joe Biden and President Trump; and I am happy with my choice. If you think about it, life is a series of choices. You choose to do something or be somewhere or act a certain way, some people may not understand your choice…

Ah This beautiful lady

This evening I am grateful for this beautiful lady who has re-entered my life. I appreciate that it is not always easy, but she has integrated well with my siblings, cousins and the rest of the family; which is important to both of us. Family that is. We just had a wonderful dinner with one…

Familia

Once again I am very grateful for my huge family. I just spent the evening with two of my cousins from my mother’s side of the family. We were say that if our cousin Susanne was with us, all four of my grandparents children would be represented at the table. I was told by my…

I travel a lot for the work that I do; this is no big deal, except in the year 2020. So today I am grateful that even with all of the traveling that I do, in and out of airports and on and off of planes, that I am still very healthy. Business must go…
