sharing: Reminders of the promises. - 05/03/09 08:22 PM
Too many times in our busy world we hear promises and wonder if they will ever be kept.  Real estate is an area where promises are critical to our business.  If we don't promise to do anything we won't be held accountable for what happens yet if we become so complacent that we are not willing to promise to simply do a good job, we will never have a business profile for the people we represent to recommend us to others and our business fails.
Recently, I was able to be reminded of one of the promises our Father in Heaven gave … (6 comments)

sharing: Singing without being audible. - 03/17/09 08:44 PM
I had a friend send me a video where some monks who had taken a vow of silence present Handel's "Messiah" in a very entertaining way.  I hope you enjoy.
Hallelujah Chorus - from monks with a vow of silence!   This is way too much fun....not to share with music lovers and friends...... You might have to watch it a couple of times to see all the guys under the robes !!!!  Just click and enjoy:

sharing: I had a handle on my market until the handle broke. - 03/17/09 08:12 PM
After way too long in keeping up with your market, I find myself in an area I did not expect.  The handle I was holding on to in our business snapped in two a while back.  I kept telling clients to stay active and be positive.  Things beyond most of our control has forced me to change the way I do business.  The bank took over control of the two subdivisions I was involved in and the builder was foreclosed on, effectively stopping business as I knew it.
Therefore, I have moved into commercial real estate as I had a couple … (3 comments)

sharing: How do I say "THANK YOU" to such wonderful people? - 10/12/08 08:43 PM
Beyond any shadow of doubt the month of September was better than the best roller coaster ride I have ever been on.  No, I did not set the world on fire, no, I did not die (although I have talked to our God about it), no, I have not been in the hospital but I have been extremely busy looking for that needle in the proverbial haystack.  The one I have been looking for has to do with the correct one to be able to use to pick the lock at the bank to get some money for both my clients … (14 comments)

sharing: As we consider options in our markets, Don't ever give up! - 08/23/08 02:53 PM
Be cause we all find ourselves confronted with the same market, we all are having the same questions.  These questions boil down to one basic question:  What am I going to do?
I have the answer to that question that is working very well for me as I look around, wondering.  The answer presented itself in a song from a long time ago.  If it will assist you while you are wondering, then smile and hold yoiu head up high, the better to see where your strength is coming from.

sharing: Reminders of our Freedoms - 08/18/08 12:06 AM
My daughter recently sent an email with a link to a video by an unusual artist that at first looks to be one of these crazy, wild, splotches of paint.  Little did I know that I needed to really watch the whole thing to realize that this was sent as a reminder that we need to hold our freedoms dear and remember our heritage.  The first song is one that makes me stand to attention anytime I hear it and I can't seem to get enough of it.  This is a video of a man named Michael Israel.  As a proud American, … (4 comments)

sharing: Before I pulled away from the Rain, I found a train. - 08/17/08 03:57 PM
Just before I stepped away from the Rain for a while, a new group got started that I immediately fell in love with that is gearded to train lovers.  Growing up in Colorado, my grandfather worked on the local railroad for 45 years.  The railroad he worked with was the Denver, Rio Grande Western (DRGW).  So when the group got started, I went on line in search of information and photo's from the time he was active with this Colorado railroad.  I have not had as much success as I would have liked (probably because I have not been able to devote … (5 comments)

sharing: I am returning to the Rain thanks to some "Wonderful "People". - 08/17/08 02:55 PM
I have been gone from the Rain for some time now as a result of circumstances beyond my control.  Had it not been for some "Wonderful "People", I may not be returning to the Rain.  These "Wonderful "People" wento out of their way to make contact with me because they were concerned.  This speaks to the quality of character these "Wonderful "People" exhibit and it is this character trait that has kept me with a desire to return.  Those of you wondering who these "Wonderful "People" are, by nature of the fact that you are having to ask, are not one … (11 comments)

sharing: Are we back in business again? - 06/23/08 08:18 PM
I don't know about the rest of you, but I logged on to my main email account just a minute ago and there were about 30 emails via Active Rain saying that emails that had been sent out through the AR email system had not been deliverable. 
I was getting paranoid about no one replying to my emails and was wondering if I had stepped on too many toes.  Most of the things I post are very positive and I wondered what might be going on.
As it looks, there may have been a problem with the change in servers and … (16 comments)

sharing: Do you have an answer to "How Big is God?" - 06/17/08 03:19 PM
Some 40 + years ago I heard a song that has stayed in my heart, soul and mind that I hope to never forget.  The song is originally written by Stuart Hamblin and speaks to so many questions we are willing to ask as children but as we "mature" we choose not to ask such "foolish" questions.  It really makes me realize why it is that God teaches us that having the faith like a child is so much closer to where He desires His children to be.  The song Stuart Hamblin wrote asks the question, and is named, "How Big … (16 comments)

sharing: Do you still have a Hero? - 06/08/08 03:53 PM
I sat there this morning vbeing challenged to see if I really had a hero worth actually being a hero.
The first one that popped into my brain was Superman, of course.

Of course, he could not really be a hero as he can be destroyed by Kryptonite and they keep changing what he really looks like.  Yes, he does stand for Justice and doing things right, but he always leaves you hanging waiting for the next battle.
Let see.  Then, being a guy, Wonder Woman popped into place.

Could she really be a hero to a guy?  No, … (26 comments)

sharing: To say thank you to BARBARA RIES. - 05/29/08 02:47 PM
Is there any other way to say thank you to someone who has made you smile than by telling as many others about them as you possibly can?  That is what this post is about.  You see since I have been allowed into this family there are some who have made differences for me.  Some that come to mind are:
Jason Crouch
Liz Moras
Pete Rondello, Sr.
Steve Homer
These are just a few of you who have made the choice to participate with me in many ways, some of which you may never realize.  I know it is not proper to … (13 comments)

sharing: This one's for Debra A. Brooks, Texas Waterfront Specialist - 05/28/08 09:34 PM
Deb was kind enough to listen to a still small voice after reading one of my post and attached a picture of A Black Eyed Susan in her comment.  It came at a special time for me as I had planted (for the first time ever) some Black Eyed Susans in my flower garden.  Well guess what, mine finally bloomed and it stood up proud and tall in front of some daisies and I wanted to share them back to her as well as all. 
I believe if we are positive about shareing the good things with our family we can … (9 comments)

Earlier today, I read a post from Kathy McGraw ~ Calif Broker that talked about following our dreams.  I could not get the post off my mind and decided to take what she reached out with and send this back to her as well as everyone else whose dreams may not be there yet or who has put their dreams on hold for a while.

sharing: How does your spring smile on you? - 05/22/08 02:39 PM
I have been enjoying the time spent with my new family and had a question for you. 
How does your spring smile on you?  I would like to hear or see from you what makes your smile show up during the spring.  Is it flowers, family, friends, pets, contracts, beaches, mountains, lakes, rivers, or anything else.  You see, to me there is nothing better than a good smile to share with others.
Here are a few to get us smiling.  Please really enjoy!!!!

Okay, so it is a crazy one.  Smile, please. 

Okay, so this is one of my hobbies … (6 comments)

I don't know if this will work or not, but the only way to find out is to try it.  This incredible video (that is supposed to be linked above) is of a man named Louie Giglio as he describes a chance meeting with a molecular biologist as it is given in a talk at the winding down of the Chris Tomlin "How Great is Our God" tour recently in Tyler, Texas.
It is 8:44 minutes long but well worth the time to watch and listen.

We were told that we might pick someone or maybe somethree to say thank you to during this contest.  Altough there are s many of you in this family who have made the difference to the way I have been granted access to it, there is one who says who and what she is with the same quality the jingle of a song will stick with you.

sharing: Will you tell the world you are a Christian? - 05/05/08 10:27 PM
Yeasterday while sitting at church, we sang a song that I had not heard in a long time.  It is called  "I Have Decided To Follow Jesus" and while this is important to us in our own daily walk through this world, there is a song that came to mind as I drove to work that seems to be more about others than about me.  It talks about letting others see Jesus in and through us because we will tell them about who He is.
I'll Tell The World That I'm a Christian was written by someone who I had the joy of … (31 comments)
