It’s Gonna Be OK.
The more things change, the more they stay the same. This old French saying seems like someone talking out of both sides of their mouth. Someone who is confused and not making sense. Changing but staying the same. What does that even mean? As election day is upon...
Get In and Hold On
I saw this saying on the window of a Jeep® vehicle the other day: Get In. Sit Down. Shut Up. Hold On. I laughed as I read it and started imagining the driver of the Jeep taking charge of his/her vehicle advising the passenger who was in control. Imagine: At first the...
