For everything and everyone. It’s Thankful Thursday and it’s Thanksgiving Day. Enough said. Wishing all of us a blessed day accompanied by those we love…present in body and spirit. Until next Thursday’s post…si Dios quiere. “Since God is with us, and our loved ones are with Him – then they’re not very far away.” For each…

For those making a difference. Today, I feature Miggy’s Gift. A young non-profit organization committed to educate and bring awareness about Melanoma skin cancer. Please check out Miggy’s Gift and learn how a tragic story turned into comfort, encouragement, and hope for so many children fighting through cancer. Every day we have opportunities to make a difference…

For the roof over our heads. My family was displaced a couple of times in the course of exile. Both for political and economic reasons. At one point, at the age of six, I remember sitting on the floor of an airport in a foreign European city not knowing where to go or what would…

Respect above politics. Can we just vote already?! The political disagreements in this country are so red hot, and the back and forth bickering is so disgusting, that we’ve reached a new level of crazy and disrespect. I find myself having to count to 10 more than I care to, and that says a lot….

For angels. Some show up at the right place and the right time to help us in some way, and then disappear never to be seen again. Some, we can’t see, but we feel guiding us and protecting us. These divine messengers watch over us day in day out. I like the thought of that….

For colors. Especially Pipo’s. Today, I find myself enjoying the fresh shades of autumn, while we travel along the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia. What a feast for the eyes. And as I take in the reds, yellows, oranges, and maroons of this spectacular scenery, I think about my grandfather, Arturo. Pipo, as we fondly called him,…

For inconveniences. This morning, I woke up to a wheel-less car. The craft of stealth-like individuals quick at work last night, almost NASCAR pit road-style. Ugh! As I stood there looking at my half naked automobile, I thought about those young people who lost their lives in that limo accident just the other day. And…

For helping hands. While I sip my coffee this morning channel surfing and preoccupied with this country’s political obsession, I see ticklers noting the over 1,400 lives lost in Indonesia, and my heart sinks. “We haven’t got a clue,” I say to myself, “we’re hopeless.” My heart breaks watching some of the images coming out…

For generosity and support. This past Saturday, our team, Rx for the Soul, joined many others in the St. Jude 5K Walk/Run to End Childhood Cancer. The turnout was fantastic, and I was so happy to see so many people take part in support of such a great cause. I wholeheartedly thank each of you…

For examples of real sacrifice. I want Lauren and Danny to recognize true sacrifice. I think these days the word is loosely used, and some of the examples of sacrifice we are seeing don’t seem true to definition. They almost seem illusory. Sacrifice is indeed a packed word, but I think it’s one that is…
