SOME THOUGHTS FOR AUGUST 2021
Those of you who know me or have followed me on Jayspeak know that I have lived a life of relative abundance. And “things” mattered, and I had a lot of “stuff”.

This has been a wonderful week of catchup for me with lots of ups and downs. No comment.

THROUGH MY EYES…..
THROUGH MY EYES….. Whenever I see something new or learn something new, I try to think about how it applies to my life? I ask myself “Why is this significant to me?” That is the only way I seem to be able to relate. I must make it personal in some way. I do theContinue reading “THROUGH MY EYES…..”
PONDERINGS about TRUTH
Today, I am thinking out loud. On my mind all week have been a lot of thoughts about the “Code of Silence” – that unspoken CODE that is part of police departments throughout the world.
