I am not a professional writer. I am a retired military man in my mid to late seventies. I write because I have many wonderful and meaningful life experiences. They are valuable to me, and I treasure them. I want to remember them, record them, and share them. I hope they will be of value to others, and especially to my family. I do not write these posts in any particular order. I write them randomly as the thoughts and memories come to me, and as I gain new insights. (Please note …at times, I may move a timely or more relevant thought to the top of this list.) These are mostly my thoughts, many of which are very personal. I write and share them sincerely from my heart. In addition, I have included many favorite quotes from great thinkers and writers. These are insights I believe and cherish. I write from the perspective of a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I consider myself a humble and unworthy disciple of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He is literally the only begotten Son of God the Eternal Father in the flesh. Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel! Halleluiah!
