Poems, prose, umm…yeah pretty much anything creative is found here.
It’s been a while since I’ve written one of these year end, year beginning posts, but this is a significant year as the 2010’s draw to a close and the 2020’s have begun. So I figured it be a good exercise to reflect and predict. Let’s start with reflect: Reflect I’m going to group things […]
Yes, this is one of those “If I was in charge, I’d do this…” posts. Don’t we all have opinions on how companies should be run? Just had these thoughts today so decided to write them down. Canada is known as one of the worst places for mobile phone plans (from a consumer perspective), largely […]
In the continuation of the series I’ve been writing this last few days, here’s something I wrote as a part of my New Year’s post at the beginning of last year: Im going to comment and interact more on the internets. Confession: Im a lurker. What happened : I’m still a lurker for the most part […]
Hey everyone, I hope your day is going well so far! I love enjoying this time with my family and friends. To all my readers, have a blessed Christmas and a very HAPPY New Year! I’ve included for your reading the text of what I shared last night to my church family (modified a bit […]

I doodled this today while I was thinking. It just kind of “appeared”. I don’t know what this means. Do you?
[image from flickr] ..and new decade – wow! What was I doing 10 years ago? Hmmm…I think I was doing an all-nighter with some youth in the church I was pastoring in Hanover. Honestly, I can’t remember… which is probably not a good thing. I actually caught myself saying to my 6 year old son […]
A couple of days ago I released a new website that I designed for some friends of mine who are the new directors of the Village of Hope in Malawi, Africa. David and Connie Buzikievich are an awesome couple who are following through with their offer to God to take them wherever He wants and […]
In playing with a new service called Animoto I decided to create a short video highlighting one incident from my short-term missions trip to Zimbabwe in June 2007. As part of that visit to the Village of Hope in Zimbabwe, I went to the “plots” which are a slum-like area with terrible living conditions that […]
