Let’s use the spirit of Halloween to Help Us Be More Human All Year ‘Round 

Mom celebrating the Halloween spirit Halloween is a season of fun, costumes , and candy . Indeed, it has become a favorite of mine. The kids get excited about their costumes, and spending the evening visiting neighbors and receiving candy in response to their declaration of, " Trick or Treat "! All around the country, neighbors open their doors and give candy to anyone who shows up seeking it. Upon reflection, it is a beautiful tradition that embodies the generosity of the human spirit. I was talking to someone yesterday and commented about how much I have grown to enjoy it and wished that it could last for more than one night.

An ode to Ice Cube, "Today was a good day..."


Today was a good day. I woke up to the rain and I smiled. I remembered that Obama secured the nomination last night. I remembered that I have been taking charge of my life, instead of going through the motions. I remembered this past weekend and was reminded that a surprise may be just around the block.

I also remembered that life can be a blissful experience, if you choose that path.

The NBC News commercial says that believing in the potential of a great day makes you get out of bed in the morning. Well, today I believed. While the day wasn’t great, it was damned good. Here’s looking forward to a great tomorrow!
