January 9, 2022 by Scott Wise

Our attitudes on death dictate the lives we live.  This seems like a strange paradox, but our acceptance of inevitable death provides the perspective that drives the actions we choose to experience life.    There are those who live their lives cautiously, without risk, who prioritize longevity over loving the life lived.   There are also those whose zest … [Read more...] about Get busy living or get busy dying

The Power of Perception

December 11, 2021 by Scott Wise

perception writes our life story

We are the authors of our reality Your life is a story and you are the author.  The reality of your life is how you choose to write it.  We can either get caught up in the details of the story’s setting, the where, when, what that takes place, or we can focus on the who that is you.  The story’s setting is simply the context in which it takes place, it is not the story … [Read more...] about The Power of Perception

It divides our country by replacing compassion and concern with conceit and … [Read more...] about The Cancer in our Community

The beginning of the end of US

January 6, 2021 by Scott Wise

I hope one day I learn the truth about how our great country came to an end.   It may not be known until after my death, and maybe only told to me by God himself.   We can no longer trust the media, trust each other, or believe our eyes, as the deceit is everywhere, all around us, from both sides of a divided America.   I am sure of this, it didn’t happen … [Read more...] about The beginning of the end of US
