As Mike pointed out, it is true that most of us form relationships with people we come in regular contact with. That’s not just romantic relationships, but friendships and business relationships as well. There are many reasons for this: familiarity breeds comfort; often we’re in the same place as others on a regular basis because [...]

One of the disadvantages of working in construction is that you don’t tend to meet very many people who are single. The majority of my customers are married couples, the bulk of which are retired. However, my job does take me to new locations and expose me to many environments. Today’s new [...]

From time to time I like to watch shows like the X games, these kids know no fear. They fly through the air on bicycles, motorcycles and skateboards doing flips and aerobatics. It looks very exciting and, on some level, I would love to still be able to do that. When I [...]

I received a text message from my daughter that read, “What’s for dinner?” The only thing that makes this worth mentioning is that she was sitting right next to me. But that’s how people communicate these days. This isn’t an isolated case. Four people bumped into me at the grocery store [...]

If you don’t already know this about me, it may come as a bit of a surprise: I’m not a fan of marriage. I do believe that if you get married, you should be serious about it, and that it’s too easy to get divorced…but the simple fact that it IS so easy to get [...]

I was at the local home center looking for seeds to start my garden when one of the store workers asked me if I needed any help. I wasn’t entirely certain what I wanted to grow in this garden, I was going to make that decision based on what I saw. However, I [...]

Sometimes Mike and I seem to be speaking two very different languages, but I don’t think it’s because he uses blue type and I use pink. I think it’s just that we’re two very different people with very different ideas about things. Today, I encountered one of those differences that proves that differing views don’t [...]
