In keeping with the holiday spirit, if you could be "Santa" and grant a wish for someone else, what would you do? What would you give and why?

I would give the gift of a white Christmas to North Texas, because we have not seen the like in Texas for quite a long time.

What have you learned recently:

I have learned that laughing is some of the best medicine.

Josh Felts

I can't say that I am anything more than sad. I had known Josh since Elementary School and this was unexpected and unprecedented. Honestly, I have never cried more in my entire. I almost became physically sick. But, today is a little easier and, hopefully, tomorrow will be a little easier than toady. This is tough, but I am hopeful for the future.

Mother Teresa said,
"Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are endless."
What kind words have you spoken recently, and to whom can you challenge yourself to speak kindly to today?

I find it more moral to speak honestly, more than kindly. I, of course, use discretion with my words but that is besides the point. I told my Mom I loved her this morning and I could speak more kindly to my sister.

It would cool to have a building named after of me, but that is highly unlikely.
It someone were to name something after me it would probably be some form of artistic style.
