A great deal has changed since my last post in 2017. Our country has seen the changes in it’s leadership, there has been an insurrection and we have become more divided as a nation. this has spurred me to try and do my little part to spread positive messages via any platform available to me. I believe there is a need for storytelling that lifts ones spirit as there is so much negative dialog in the world especially on social networks. One thing I haven’t changed is that even though it may hurt my being able to attract a larger audience I choose not to be on any platforms other that this one.

From a personal standpoint, over the past several years I’ve combated prostate cancer and had a number of other operations which thankfully I am recovering from. I’ve decided to finally give up surfing after sixty wonderful years of doing so. Yes it’s partially due to age and illnesses but sadly mostly due to the degradation of our oceans as I seemingly get ill after most sessions.

Several years ago I self-published via Amazon Kindle, my personal story “Chicken of The Sea, The Golden Years”, a follow up to my original personal story “Chicken of the Sea”. It’s about how, despite ones advancing in age that you can overcome it’s affects as well as other obstacles one can thrive and realize their full potential.

I plan to author at least one blog per week and hopefully those stories will be both thought provoking, informative, uplifting and enjoyable.

Thanks for checking in and I would love any feedback you have.
