Social Media Sales Truths
I’ve noticed recently as I go to and from my days between meetings and conferences, and kids sporting events, that most everyone keeps tabs with their smartphone. As I walk by and glance at what’s so important, I can say most of the time […]
Springtime Blossom

The Thing About Email Domains
Just thinking, I have to say that email service domain names are a bad online ID that we use for most everything. We all have an email address, or usually need one for subscribing to social media and the like, even though an email […]
Spring Storm Clouds At Sunset
The Journey of Life
A pathway was created during the hard winter with deep snow, around the flower bed to the back of the yard. Now that the snow is almost melted, before you know it the pathway will be gone. Such as in the journey of life […]
Dog At Peace
After a swim in the lake he sleeps in peace. Have you noticed how dog’s have a way of bringing peace to the stress of a family or household? They are filled with unconditional love, when we look for it … and learn from […]
What’s In Your Heart
Whats in your heart. We all make decisions every day. When we say ‘yes’ to one thing, then it is at the cost of many ‘no’s’. We all have a hole in our hearts that need to be filled. What we fill into that […]
The Blogging Newsletters Problem
With blogging and newsletters, there’s a new problem – email service providers and email clients can’t keep up with privacy measures and deliver on the marketing promises in their ads. Readers are missing important email content and it seems to be getting worse. In […]

Golden Hour on the Fence
The golden hour winter sun sets on a picket fence, and snowy tree branches, creating a moment of visual respite for end of the day worries and concerns. When you’re so tired in today’s world, of balancing technology with human interactions, or worries and […]

Autumn Colors Stormy Skies Prairie Trail
I like the warm colors of the prairie here under the stormy sky. Much like the path in life that we take, it can be quite colorful yet we know there can be storms all around us. Enjoy the beauty of the moment ….
Chicago Water Tower Christmas
I’ve titled this photograph – ‘ City of Chicago Old Water Tower Christmas‘ – because looking at this scene tells me about living with strength and faith. Strength because the tower, built in 1869, gained prominence after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. In […]
Last Peek of Winter Sun
Threshold – Monochrome
Here we have a tulip flower that is opening up with the dawn of the morning light. Faith and hope are just that … believing in the things not seen, and acting as if it’s going to be. Much of our experiences and struggles […]

Shadows and Trees Landscape
God makes trees as individual as He does people. No two trees are the same. Look up close at their details. The shadows created by the Light, are like the beauty that we leave on the world through Him. This to me is the […]
Golden Hour Reflections
When I look at this scene, I reflect about all the people behind those windows, and all the people who built these buildings over the years. Yes, it all looks perfect on the outside, but it’s what’s inside that counts and makes all the […]
Morning Sunlight Architecture
All of us are different, yet together. What struck me about this view of Chicago architecture was the Illumination from the morning sunlight. Then what came into view is how these structures are from decades apart of each other. Though each of these are […]
