Frowns, Crowns, and Gowns
What did you make of the coronation? Some people love it, others are indifferent, and more than a handful hate it. Pretty much like everything else in our world. I must admit that I was somewhat indifferent. Read a biography of Charles and it’s a real mixed bag. With all that background and breeding the…

Most of Us
Most of us are more similar than different. Thank God! Medicine depends on that truth for research and application of breakthrough treatments. A surgeon expects to find the heart in the same place for every patient. Such studied and learned expectation applies for every organ, vein, a brain neural pathway, and all that is wrapped…

Are You Disposable? Am I?
Strip away religion, church traditions, denominational pet peeves, and whatever else clogs the pipeline from God to us.

Snapshots
For those who live on the West Coast of North America you will know that we’ve had bucket loads of snow recently. This morning I sent my daughters snapshots of the snow around us. Tomorrow much of the snow will have melted. The snapshot captures a moment in time – a moment that melts, fades,…
