Ramblings

UNITED STATES—Oh, President Donald Trump, why, oh why can you just focus on trying to “Make America Great Again” as you claim, instead of causing further friction and divide in the country. I mean who would have ever expected a tweet between Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry would create so much uproar. It has been a tradition for...

UNITED STATES—Is it smarter to buy or is it smarter to rent? That is a question people ask themselves time and time again when it comes to property or housing. I’ve made the argument in the past and I will continue to argue it the rest of my life. Owning property is the greatest asset a person could have...

UNITED STATES—This week I really want to tackle a topic of importance that we rarely talk about in America: cheating. It is something so many people encounter in relationships; rather one is dating or married. Rather you have been cheated on or the perpetrator who got caught cheating, it’s not a great feeling America. So we’ve heard the theory...

UNITED STATES—Marriage from what I know it’s not easy. Let me be clear I am not married, but I have recently observed several couples over recent years who have been married for at least 10 plus years each or longer. Through observation I am learning a lot about marriage, the key thing being that you get what you put...

UNITED STATES—President Donald Trump has erupted a bit of chaos yet again in America with his decision to put an end to DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals). The program was established by former U.S. President Barack Obama in 2012 which allowed individuals who entered the country illegally as minors the ability to obtain renewable two-year period of deferred...

UNITED STATES—A dream: it’s something many of us hold onto with unbelievable power. We all have dreams, we all have aspirations, but for many of us, those dreams don’t always come to fruition. However, I think for most Americans our dreams never dissipate; they are just placed on the backburner. So the question to ask is what causes someone...

UNITED STATES—The United States has been battered with some extreme weather in the past few weeks. First, Hurricane Harvey unleashed devastation through various parts of Texas, including notable damage in the Houston region. The biggest damage from Harvey was the torrential rains which led to massive and I mean massive flooding leaving many without homes and limited places to...

UNITED STATES—Life. Life is full of choices America, sometimes things we want to accomplish, a lot of the time it involves us doing things that we are not so happy to do. Why is this a conversation worth having? While I think it’s common for most Americans to have situations arise in their lives where they don’t necessarily come...

UNITED STATES—For quite some time I have been thinking about going vegan. On occasion, I have actually done it, where I would completely give up red meat, pork and seafood. Yes, I know what you all are thinking, but what about chicken. Yes, I do indulge in chicken a bit simply because I need to have protein in my...

UNITED STATES—Sometimes I feel much older than I think I am some days. It seems the younger generations are so obsessed with technology, their phones and all things social media it is impossible to have a conversation with them. So understand my surprise this past week while attending a funeral that so many of my first cousins and to...
