Greenwashing is when when companies make misleading statements about their actions to appear more environmentally friendly than they actually are. Usually they do this so they can get something passed with the government (or maybe it is the actual government) so they’re supported by the public and affiliates. In our private lives, it’s called virtue-signaling.Continue reading “Greenwashing”

The Spin
Redacted information is manipulation. We’ve all done it. Tell a story a certain way when you want people to agree with you, conveniently leave out little bits of it so you can control the opinion, spin doctor the outcome….Put ourselves in the light, the right, and generate a pile on of support. But are weContinue reading “The Spin”
Mistake v. Issue
Mistakes and issues are two very different things. A mistake is something we know we did wrong, something we regret, and likely a flub that won’t happen again because when we made it, we were careless or not paying attention. It’s something we don’t want to happen again and we see the error. It’s howContinue reading “Mistake v. Issue”
“I prayed about it.”
One of my favorite things to do, but one of my LEAST FAVORITE retorts to hear. Now let me explain because this is a little touchy…So, we prayed about it. That’s good, I think that’s what we should do. Ask for guidance, ask our friends to join us in prayer, even take a minute toContinue reading ““I prayed about it.””
Shit Pie is Better Than Plain Shit
Love tanks. Everyone has one and everyone’s has a gauge. You can’t see it, it’s not as cut and dry as looking in the dash of you car, but it’s there. And I bet when yours is on E, it feels a lot like undervalue or confusion. But when it’s full, it feels a lotContinue reading “Shit Pie is Better Than Plain Shit”
Bacon & Eggs
Think about your breakfast one morning when you have some time to ruminate what it actually took to get all that to your plate. The chicken’s involved, but the pig’s committed. One day you’ll have a decision to make in your life where you have to choose what you are. Probably more than one ifContinue reading “Bacon & Eggs”
Warning Signs Aren’t Random
Chances are 100% that if you’re on a dangerous road, there have been plenty of warning signs before you get to the 500′ cliff where the “end of construction” sign is. Choosing to ignore them will put you in a big time mess that was completely avoidable. God will give you 1,000+ detours & warningContinue reading “Warning Signs Aren’t Random”
Is pretending to be stupid a good defense?
“I don’t know what happened!” “That’s crazy!” “I didn’t notice.” “You should probably talk to _____ about that.” “Huh, that’s weird!” “I have no idea!” All responses of people pretending and hiding behind their choices when they actually did play the lead role in a bad choice. So is pretending to be stupid a goodContinue reading “Is pretending to be stupid a good defense?”
How Far do You Take it?
This may be an unpopular opinion and also maybe hypocritical to my “let it go” and “heal the hurt” messages…so hear me out. How far do you take it when someone hurts your child? All the way to the gates of hell to deliver them and back is how far I’ll take it. I’m notContinue reading “How Far do You Take it?”
The devil Doesn’t Go After What He Already Has
Chew on that for a minute. Hopefully, we’ve all felt some type of spiritual, internal struggle and warfare going on at some point in our lives. I think that’s a good emotion, having a conscience and all. I would feel safe saying that most crappy people know they do crappy things and don’t care andContinue reading “The devil Doesn’t Go After What He Already Has”
