How to Ruin Anything

March 23, 2011 in Conflict Resolution with 0 Comments

I once ruined a good set of tires. Yep. $600 worth. That was painful. Want to know how I did it? I resisted the urge to get a vehicle aligned when I knew I should have. $650 later (It only cost $50 to get a vehicle aligned!), I’d learned a lesson.

Not having things in proper alignment hinders us physically, as well. I’ve been told that bad spine alignment may be what’s keeping my tailbone from healing. No joke. It’s been three years since I broke my tailbone mountain biking in Texas. Yes. Three painful Continue Reading…

It seems like forever since I’ve reviewed a book for Tyndale Publishers. I simply haven’t had the time to read materials not germane to school or work. Hopefully, in the near future that will change, and I can go back to reviewing books for them.

Birthdays and Conflict

March 17, 2011 in Journal with 6 Comments

With every passing birthday comes the utterly, yet not-so-profound realization that… 40 is swiftly approaching. I actually had numerous friends remind me of that the day before yesterday when I turned 38. Thanks guys! Make sure you read a healthy dose of sarcasm into that, please.

In all actuality, I’m fine with getting older. I just don’t care to dwell on it all that much. But all this got me to thinking about this Continue Reading…

Health Check-Up

March 14, 2011 in Health with 0 Comments

I hate going to the doctor. I really do. I know that when I go, inevitably something will be found wrong with me. It’s like when I take my truck to get the oil changed. Their routine inspections always seem to uncover an air filter that needs to be replaced, even though I changed it at their request after my last oil change. Discoveries like that, regardless of whether or not they seem justified, are expected. Continue Reading…
