Once my husband, son, and I were attending a private dinner of 200, hosted by our Governor. A man approached my husband to ask, “Are you anyone of significance?” Tony answered, “Yes. My wife and children think I am.”
I am often told when I speak around the nation…”Hey! Remember me when you are famous.” […]
There are consumers who shop around and sometimes even buy impulsively. They see something great, or something they cannot live without, and grab it for their own. But, what about consumers of people?
There are basically two types of people in life—takers and givers. Come to think of it there are other odd couples like:

No matter your political preference or party lines, there is a man whom I dearly love. Governor Rick Perry is one of the nicest and funniest guys I have ever met. He is personable, caring and attentive. IF he could have campaigned for the top elected office one on one with no debates, he would have […]
Depending on your financial advisor, commodities are still an investor’s choice. I, personally, have found a more sure precious commodity—our children.

The setting was a ballroom with beautiful decorations and hundreds of attendees. After speaking, I went […]
Have you ever made the statement, “One day I am going to…?” What day is planned exactly? Is it already on your calendar? How many “one days” have come and gone while you brewed and stewed on your great idea but just never found the “right day?”
Your “one day” may take effort and some […]
People have always asked me if I have met Joni Eareckson Tada.

Sometimes any disability is more in the […]
Hey! It may not be a televised Olympian race, nonetheless, it has been a marathon of six weeks and a great McTeam helping me complete over one year’s worth of radio features soon to be launched to the nation.
