Currently I am in the States. This weekend has been extremely busy, but my schedule will settle down a bit after today. More posts will come this week with more photos about life in Japan - including a few interesting photos from a festival that happened the weekend before I left Japan
Seeing […]
The book is now on sale. Normal posts resume on Wednesday
Today I am extremely excited to announce that my book is ready for preview. I’ll be providing a link to download the book right here.
“The Two-Minute Challenge” is about self-actualization. Not only is this topic interesting to read about, but it can change your life when you seriously think about it. What are the driving […]

Since returning from our wedding ceremony and celebration in the US, we’ve been pretty busy around here on the weekends. Meeting and sharing our photos with […]
