Bob Marley to me is one of the greatest singers ever ... I love the sound, I love the words ... I love the feeling. Good friends we have, good friends we've lost along the way In this great future, you can't forget your past ... So dry your tears I say No woman. No Cry! I think that says it all.... Life is a journey, enjoy it as it shows up, don't make it complicated, just know that ... "Everythings, going to be all right." To View More >>

A few years ago while attending a Leadership course in San Diego I saw a presentation by Gary King. It was incredible, not only did he talk from the heart, but what he said was profound in it's simplicity and as he touched my soul he changed my life.
