Pain Can Be a Gift

If you have followed my articles for a while, you have probably heard my opinion that perspective is everything. Well, I’d like to share my perspective on pain.

Time

That little four-letter word is the most important thing to us. It controls mostly everything we do, everything we think, and everything we want to be in life.

Trust: The Anchor of Hope

Today was one of those tumultuous days. The kids are asleep, and I can finally process my thoughts, and unpack my tired mind.

Believe

Belief is such a simple thing, however simple, does not make it easy. I’ve found that faith is often something you have to fight to keep, until the things you’ve been hoping for have started to come into view.
