Minimalism defined: A school of abstract painting and sculpture that emphasizes extreme simplification of form, as by the use of basic shapes and monochromatic palettes of primary colors, objectivity, and anonymity of style. Use of the fewest and barest essentials or elements, as in the arts, literature, or design. I like the idea of extreme…
I Resolve
Happy 2015! It’s become the norm to make a new year resolution, along the lines of “I am going to stop this” or “my life goals for this year are going to be…” Interesting enough though, very few resolutions are adequately embraced for the long haul, and some within a few weeks throw in the…
Short Stack Order
Bon Jovi sang a song about it, along the lines of “we’re half way there”. Journey came close to the end goal with “Don’t stop believing.” And then there’s the massively deep philosophical “glass is either half full or half empty” conundrum. We are just a little shy of reaching our end of year goal…
Merry Christmas
Wishing everyone who stumbles across this post, on this day, a very Merry Christmas. It’s a wonderful time of the year to reflect, and observe. Reflect on the months that have passed and observe from them what can be done differently heading into 2015. Goals are always set around this time of the year, I…
Cluttered Perspective
The cluttered perspective. Interesting play on words. When I view something through my lens it looks cluttered, unappealing, distraught, perhaps even mystically miss-aligned.

Content Matters
There is a lot of hype about content. It either gains momentum as it garners interest or you lose your target audience within moments. Content matters! I have found that often the best told story is the one you have lived yourself. It’s penned in the paragraphs that what you speak of is truth, and…
Formula One Motor Racing Dilemma
You’ve all heard of Formula One motor racing at some point. From the late greats Fangio and Senna, to the 2014 crowned World Champion Lewis Hamilton – almost choke typing his name! But that’s another story for another time. On the last day of December 2013, Michael Schumacher, notably the world’s most celebrated racing driver…
The Sometimes Long Middle
On that day, you won’t ask me for anything. Truly, I tell all of you emphatically, whatever you ask the Father for in my name, he will give it to you. John 16:23 Powerful little scripture there. Have you considered the “long middle” concerning your request and when it receives an answer, if at all?…
Black what & Cyber who?
The prediction in the continental USA for Black Friday and Cyber Monday estimates that 12 billion dollars in revenue will be traded. That’s really impressive! It’s a trend that grows every year without fail. It’s a trend that is spilling over into mainstream Europe and Southern Africa. The concept is genius. You own and operate…
