Allow me a moment to pause so that I may make it perfectly clear that I’m not proposing any form of child abuse. Nor am I advocating that parents should literally ... [Continue Reading]

As I entered the gym this morning, I shared morning greetings with a man whom I’ve had the pleasure of watching the transition from young man to grown man.  I first met this gentleman man more than ten years ago when he was an out of shape teen.
