  • "I Voted" Sticker

    Tuesday, November 4, 2008 | An Inspiring story

    I think we can all agree tonight is a historic night. Regardless of how you feel about Obama I hope we are all inspired by the amazing turnout and the emotional investment in this election we have never seen before.
    Today I was doing rounds at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center. It is common to have many folks hanging out in the waiting rooms outside of the surgical ICU waiting for the "5 ...

  • Recipe for a New Year

    Thursday, January 8, 2009 | An Inspiring story

    Recipe for a New Year
    Take twelve months - cleanse them of all bitterness, stinginess, pedantry, and fear.  Then divide each month into 30 or 31 equal parts to let there be sufficient days to last throughout the year.  Fill each day with one part work and two parts happiness and humor.  Add to this 3 heaping tablespoons of optimism, 1 teaspoon of tolerance, 1 grain of irony, and a p...

  • This is the Day That the Lord Has Made!

    Monday, April 27, 2009 | An Inspiring story

    So, as many of you know, I was baptised at Westside Church of Christ yesterday!
    I wasn't sure it was going to happen, but on Sunday, the 26 April, I was re-born with an identity and life in Christ.  I was very nervous, of course, considering I had to go up in front of the entire congregation (around 450 people), and profess my commitment.  The pastor, Bobby, who I just love and admir...

  • inspirational poem

    Monday, July 27, 2009


    I know that I understand, how little they really know.
    And that look of pity on their face, will always show.
    They can't look past and get to know, the person deep inside.
    They never see the real me, the part this chair can't hide.
    I want them to know I have a mind, I am capable of love.
    I have lots of hopes and desires, and things I dream of. 
    I know my legs may be useless, I may travel b...

  • Put my Trust back in God

    Sunday, September 20, 2009 | An Inspiring story

    Hey J.  It's been a while since I have written.  I have been a busy beaver and just not had my mind on journaling much.  Glad to see you are still here waiting for me.  An important thing happened last night.  I placed my trust back in God.  I had turned my back and walked away for a good while.  I got this deluded thought in my sick mind that I would one da...

  • Self Injury: Life

    Thursday, November 5, 2009 | An Inspiring story

    For over 3 years, i've cut myself. It's been a long time since i could actually say that i was clean of it. I dont even really remember how to live without it. What i do instead, or what i do to fill the space that i used it for. I don't know, but i'm going to do it. Self destructive behavior isn't needed in my life, yet i've used it as though it were a necessity. It stops...
