This is the second in a series of posts regarding the 7 Myths that keep people stuck. As I’ve said before, we all have our own story. None are less important than others. We also have stories that we’ve been telling ourselves or others have been telling us. We’re hearing things like…. Myth #2 –…
I’m taking a bit of a departure from my regular blog. MY HOPE with these type of posts, is that I can add more value to more of my readers (a.k.a. tribe…you). This is first in a series of posts regarding the 7 Myths that keep people stuck. Who else grew up at 4347 Portage…
Holy cow! Last week, I wrote the Eye Need Hope Manifesto. This week, actually yesterday, it was accepted as a book on Amazon.com! This is one of those moments where every sentence that I write could literally end with an exclamation point! (see?) If you were to go to Amazon and search “Eye Need Hope”,…
When I started blogging, while being partially BLIND, I said that I wanted to do something with my current circumstances. It’s always been my mission to make “this” count for something. My purpose is to help others that are struggling to handle adversity. These “others” can come from all walks of life with all sorts…
Is it time to go back to the Southwyck Mall in Toledo? Who doesn’t want to go to the mall, not to mention the Lion Store? I hate to break it to you, but they’re both closed. Sorry, but when I was a kid, I used to love this time of the year. Not because we…

My kids, they are my masterpiece. They’re the best thing that I’ve ever had a part in creating….
Are you serious? Yes, I am. You may remember in my last post I told you about the other man in our house, my oldest son. Grant and I had the chance to talk a little last week while he was splitting wood. I loved to see him working hard. Seeing his shirt…
Picture this, I’m in my office (in our basement) with the window slightly cracked for a little fresh air. It’s in the 80’s just before noon. As you might expect it’s another humid day in Ohio. Off in the distance I hear a “thud”. Ten seconds go by and I hear another “thud”. This happens…
OK, the position was never “officially” posted but I’m happy to say that I’m no longer in need of a seeing-eye-dog (for the purposes of golf!). My good friend Cary Allion has stepped to be my seeing-eye-“slink”dog. You may have seen my request last night. If you didn’t, please reply to this note with…
I try not to whine, but some days are hard. This time I opted to leave out the “h” and just have wine and it was good. Connie and I met with Dr. Katz, yesterday, and he told me that he had been thinking about me quite a lot over the past few weeks. This…
