This is the year of the great resignation. Or so many say. Actually, I know so. I have seen more than 30% position vacancy rate. And, admittedly I too am “reflecting”. I rather call this the reflection economy. But that’s another topic for another day. In this economy, […]
I’m not a huge football fan. However, I do usually catch the Superbowl. If anything, to catch interesting commercials. We all know the 1984 Apple Ad. We know the Clydesdales. Commercials used to be fun. Lately I’ve been into the actual games themselves. They’ve been close. That is […]
Towards the end of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamiliton, George Washington muses: “You have no controlWho lives, who dies, who tells your story?And when you’re gone, who remembers your name?Who keeps your flame?Who tells your story?” As a kid who grew up as a storyteller, I readily get the power […]
I love watching the Olympics. Always have. I, at times, prefer the winter Olympics because those are truly sports I cannot do. First off , I don’t like the cold. Second, my level of coordination related to anything involving snow is abysmal. There is no third. That’s it. […]

Happy lunar new year! It is the year of the tiger. I find myself humming to Survivor’s Eye of the Tiger song. The tiger is commonly associated with something like bravery, courage and strength. The tiger can also be viewed as an uplifting animal that can give people hope. […]
I may be a little late to this particular viewing party. However, better late than never. I had seen clips here and there for Disney’s latest fanily animated film. I hadn’t been enticed. I also didn’t think my 13 year old son would like the film. Thus, I […]
The other night I was watching the television show called Pennyworth. It’s a prequel, of sorts, for Batman. There was a scene where both Pennyworth and his mother are sitting on the couch when they both, independently of each other, notes they have a sense of dread. I […]
I am going to admit something outright. I wrote the title of this post at around 1am. I have no idea what I was referring to or what thoughts I had planned to pen. I get it, though. There was supposed to be a big storm and it […]
