This is where I can randomly jot down ideas and post articles based on the the everyday happenings of life. It may be business, or musings on current events, or comments about travel and more with friends and family. Life is to be lived with passion, humor, fun, trust, loyalty and love.
Keep putting one foot in front of the other
Keep putting one foot in front of the other: This is something that my mother said over and over again when I was a child. It didn't mean much to me until I was an adult and actually experienced hardships that slowed me down. Now when bad things happen, I remember her words and it helps me get perspective.

Good luck to Egypt's people!
It is true that the souls in people yearn for freedom. What happened in Egypt this week is more than extraordinary. It shook up a lot of people and energized even more. The U.S. must support the people's efforts for democracy - I hope they will let us help. The fact that demographic changes played such an important role is amazing. Most of the protestors were younger than 30, and had known no other leader except Mubarak. The images of happiness, tears of joy, and the determination on the faces of the people have been seen around the world. It made me wonder what would have happened here in the U.S. if the Revolutionary war was influenced by immediate communication such as Facebook and Twitter. The fact that news traveled slowly then worked both to advantage and disadvantage for sure. Good luck to the people of Egypt. What a proud time for you,
