Steven Curtis Chapman is definitely one of my favorite song writers/musicians. There is something in his music, and the way he says things that I really connect with. More than any other musician I can think of. I’ve written about this many times, including here. Well apparently 2012 marks 25 years of making music for…
Life With God
Do I Have A Dream?
This week the well-known refrain, “I have a dream!” echoed from the lips of a man who changed the world. We are all quite familiar with the speech. Powerful words, and stirring delivery by a great orator. But the heart of what Martin Luther King declared on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial one late…
Both Sides of the Story
I’ve mentioned here many times that I am learning how crucial it is to see life from multiple angles. Getting not only information from people with opposing viewpoints, but really trying to step into their shoes; see from their perspective. It’s just so crucial to communication, to cooperation, interaction… to society in general. And so…
Gotta Be In The Same Room
Men often hate each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they do not know each other; they do not know each other because they can not communicate; they can not communicate because they are separated. —Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I’ve been meaning to write this post many times over….
Decision Points
When I first heard of the book that President George W. Bush recently published, I wasn’t sure that I’d ever need to read it. I had an inkling that it might be interesting, historically speaking, but I figured I wouldn’t probably spend my money on it. But, as my choices dwindled for books to download…
Yearning For Less
“I wish I had more time!” I am saying that far too often these days. And, it sure seems true when I think it and/or utter it. I am finding that I wake up tired most days, and often go to bed later than I thought I would. And understandably, have much to do in…
Seasons
There is a rhythm to life that I think most of us ignore. The natural rhythm of the seasons. The new beginning, the freshness of life in the spring. The vibrance of life through the long days of summer. The harvest of the fruits of summer’s sun in the fall, and the reminder that rest…
What Matters Most: The Story of Jayden
Every day we have stuff to do. Things that are “on our plate”. At the time, they weigh on us, at the end of the day (or during the day) exhaust our energy, and they may or may not also leave us feeling fulfilled. You know what I’m talking about. It’s work, it’s the kids,…
Wrapping Up
Editor’s Note: This post is taken from a recent newsletter to our basic mailing list. Seemed a fitting post for GregsHead.net on this last day of 2011. The email updates are infrequent, but if you’d like to sign up for the list, you can do so from our basic website or Facebook page. Thanks Another…
No Comparison
I have this friend. He’s pretty amazing at everything he attempts. He has a lot of the same interests and capabilities, and does a lot of the same work as me, only a lot better. He can build smarter web sites. He can code (well) in several web programming languages. He’s even a handyman kinda…
