Hello, I’m Still Here…
I know my posts here and at RJsMosaic have been few and far between in the last month or so. I have been busy planning my projects for 2025. Continue reading Hello, I’m Still Here…
Mosaic of Life #144 The Bridges of Parke County
Parke County Indiana has more than its share of covered bridges, and I have visited most of them. But, perhaps this one is my favorite. It was taken from a weathered window at the bottom of the Bridgeton Mill. Continue reading Mosaic of Life #144 The Bridges of Parke County
I’ve Decided What I Want My Legacy To Be
Everybody, even the simpletons in the world, of which there are MANY, have thought about what they want to be known for after they are dead. I know I have spent an inordinate amount of time on this subject. Continue reading I’ve Decided What I Want My Legacy To Be
Mosaic of Life #142 Pittsburgh, One Gritty Town
Pittsburgh is very much a “working man’s town.” One day on a trip to Philadelphia, we made a one-hour tour through some Pittsburgh’s legendary neighborhoods that haven’t changed much in the last 100 years. Continue reading Mosaic of Life #142 Pittsburgh, One Gritty Town
Empathy Without Action Is…
In my mind, empathy is what makes my life worth living. Helping others with their struggle through life. In that regard, it is important to understand just what empathy is all about. Continue reading Empathy Without Action Is…
Mosaic of Life #141 Old Town Quebec – X-Ray
Old Quebec is a fortified town retaining its colonial architecture from over 400 years ago. “Fortified” means it still has the defensive works that protected it from attacks. We didn’t visit Quebec but were fascinated by the original version Continue reading Mosaic of Life #141 Old Town Quebec – X-Ray
Mosaic of Life #143 The Thing I Miss The Most…
I was careful to precisely state the title of this mosaic. The “thing” I miss the most in my life is the 1800 sq ft workshop that I left behind when I moved into my RetCom in 2021. Continue reading Mosaic of Life #143 The Thing I Miss The Most…
Generational Amnesia…
The simplest definition of generational amnesia is learning from the past so we don’t make the same mistakes over and over again. Continue reading Generational Amnesia…
What Will I Be…
(just for the heck of it, I thought I would bring a post from my other blog at RJsMosaic to RJsCorner. This one has a deep philosophical thought 😎) In my days before I put aside the idea of life … Continue reading What Will I Be…
Mosaic of Life #128 Fluffed Up For Winter
It seems like it was yesterday that I was watching the Spring flowers bloom. But, with the temps going done into the low 40s again, I know winter is on the way. This picture was taken in January 2007. Winters here in the Midwest were much more severe then than they are now. Continue reading Mosaic of Life #128 Fluffed Up For Winter
We Will Soon Be Throwing Our Smartphones Away…
I will admit that cellphones have probably made the biggest impact on our lives since their invention. But, twenty years is about the lifetime for most of these types of advances. I wonder what the next “big” thing will be? Continue reading We Will Soon Be Throwing Our Smartphones Away…
Mosaic of Life #137 – My Mind’s Eye
“My Mind’s Eye” is one of the most descriptive phrases I have ever come across. To me, it is more than just a visual element—it’s packed with symbolism. Typically, the eye represents perception, consciousness, and awareness. Continue reading Mosaic of Life #137 – My Mind’s Eye
Mosaic of Life #140 – The Forever Me
In my days before I put aside the idea of life after death, I wondered what I would look like when I went to heaven. Would I be an old guy as when I die, or maybe a baby starting all over again. Or maybe the bigger question is what do I want to look like? I answer that question with the blurry photo above. Continue reading Mosaic of Life #140 – The Forever Me
When You Don’t Know Where You Are Going, Every Road Takes You There
I guess now is the time of life where I am supposed to reflect on what I have done with the time that God still gives me. I spent too much of my time in the past wandering around in the wilderness of life. Too much dreaming, too much procrastination, too much overthinking Continue reading When You Don’t Know Where You Are Going, Every Road Takes You There
A Little Secret…
For this entire year of 2024, I have been withholding a lifestyle decision from you. Now that it is officially over, I thought I would tell you about it. But, first a little background story: Continue reading A Little Secret…
