Posted by I thought from an early age that I thought differently than other kids growing up. As a military brat growing up around the world, changing homes every few years or more often than that, I looked for the similarities. Anything in common I could find to fit in or find some common ground that would…Read more »
Posted by It’s interesting that most people believe they give the same level of respect to the janitor as they do the CEO, however, how real is that belief, in all actuality?

Posted by January 2021 has turned a different corner for me. Although, it is very real that the pandemic rages on, my life has gotten a bit more interesting and nicer. At least for the time being.
