• THE BIG ONE
    Jan 26 2026

    It’s been a few years since we have had a snowstorm measuring over a foot. We have been watching the weather report as we followed it across the country. It seems as though people spend a good part of their lives waiting for big ones, both positive and negative. For me, I have learned to trust that whatever is in the future, my team ls there to assist me through.

  • TELLING A STORY
    Jan 25 2026

    Most people love to tell stories, especially as they get older, reminiscing about the “good old days”. Then there are story tellers who have a point to their stories to help others look at a situation from a different view without engaging them in a confrontive way. That is when you leave the story you are telling and step into a story of their own.

  • REASONS TO SMILE
    Jan 24 2026

    Several times a day I find myself with a smile on my face caused by something that crossed my mind. It could be from the past, the present, or a thought of someone else. When you are smiling and others feel the positive energy behind your smile, it may cause them to smile, and who knows where your smile will spread.

  • FINDING STABILITY IN A CHANGING WORLD
    Jan 23 2026

    When we first arrived in the valley, we used to drive a road that gave us a breathtaking view of the majestic mountains to the west. We built our home where we had that view. Now, sixty years later, the majestic mountains are still there, even though the valley has changed considerably. It is good to have stability in our hearts, regardless of how our world changes.

  • IT HAS BEEN A WHILE
    Jan 22 2026

    With the recent cold weather our thoughts focused on the memory of the joy of eating fresh baked bread. I used to make it before I became allergic to gluten. Now that there is gluten free flour, it was time to try again. The results were not the same. We find many things different from what we remember. We have changed. It is time to make updates.

  • IN THE SPOTLIGHT
    Jan 21 2026

    At just the right time, when the sun is coming up, it creates an alpine glow that can spotlight a single mountain. Sometimes people who are not used to being in the spotlight are noticed by others for something either positive or negative. That is the time to let a positive light shine through for the good of others.

  • AN INCH AT A TIME
    Jan 20 2026

    Winter has returned and the snow is adding up again one inch at a time, with a dusting or more each day instead of a big storm. Life changes the same way, a little bit at a time. It all adds up. We can make progress or we can regress if we are not mindful of the little changes. One inch or one moment, life and the weather move on.

  • A FRESH COATING OF WHITE
    Jan 19 2026

    The new coating of white snow has freshened up the landscape. It reminds me of a term called “whitewashing”, when white paint is used to cover up surface flaws to create a fresh clean feeling. People often try to whitewash their lives so other people won’t discover their flaws. Perfection comes from positive heart-based intentions.
