Today’s look back takes us only three hundred sixty-five days into the past. One year ago this day, I wrote about wanting to eat better. And eat better I did. I feel much better, much more in shape, much lighter (nearly thirty pounds!) and I enjoy running, and a much earlier schedule. Of note on…
[ThisDay] Caught In A Snowstorm!
It is a beautiful, snowy day as I write this. Large, puffy snowflakes drift quietly to the ground, piling higher and higher—much to the Campbell children’s delight! Apparently this time of year is a snowy time of year! Two separate posts on January 23rds over the past decade have been about notable amounts of snow….
[ThisDay] Christianity, or Jesus? (Aren’t They the Same?)
January 22nd in GregsHead history was slightly more difficult to whittle down than some of the other days. It was not due to volume, though—only five posts. Four of the five posts are worth reading (the other is worth it if you are using WordPress for blogging…) but of the six options, I selected the…
[ThisDay] City Living… Or Not
There were not too many posts published this day in GregsHead history. In fact, there were only four total. That made selecting a favorite a bit easier, but I believe I would have chosen this particular story against most competition, anyway. Please enjoy this little anecdote from a bedtime just a couple years ago. :-)…
[ThisDay] Both Sides of the Story
I had an intriguing idea today. “I wonder what I was thinking and writing on this day through the ten plus years I’ve been publishing stuff here? I wonder if it’s the same stuff I’m thinking in January of 2014?” Seemed like an interesting enough activity to share it here with you. (Hello, you!) For…
Stillness
Quiet can sometimes indicate trouble. (Perhaps this is most true for parents of young children?) When someone you love is quiet, it can cause you some concern. “Are you feeling okay? You seem so quiet…” Other times quiet is necessary. We must stop to process. To think. Ruminate. Cogitate. Meditate. To pray. Commune. We read…
[Football Friday] Stranger Things Have Happened…
The big news this Football Friday is that the Buffalo Bills game in Orchard Park this Sunday versus the Cincinnati Bengals… will be on TV! There were over 7,000 tickets left at the start of this week, and with the current state of panic and fear—and the ever-present dread, hopelessness, and dismay—amongst Bills fans, there…
[Football Friday] Wait… What Day Is It?
Today is actually Thursday, but since the Buffalo Bills play their weekend game tonight, my Football Friday post—a preview of the next game—will publish on a Thursday! It’s very confusing… Hopefully the BILLS will not be as confused! Though, as I heard pointed out this week, the Thursday Night Games so far this season have…
[Football Friday] Mounting Injuries, Mounting Losses?
NFL football is rough. (That’s probably obvious.) And somehow, it’s always rougher to the Buffalo Bills! I remember just a few years ago when there were seventeen (or more?) players on the season-ending Injured Reserve (IR) list! That’s a third of an NFL roster! Yikes! This year is starting off no better. Look at this…
Hope
1 Faith is being sure of what we hope for. It is being certain of what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1 This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. Hebrews 6:19 There are days. There are weeks, months and long years where … boy, it just feels like nothing is worth…
