The last couple of weeks I’ve been really impressed with the concept of “less is more.”
In a culture that thrives off more, having less has certainly become counter cultural – but it works.
This is one of the reasons – in my opinion – Apple has historically done well. There are less options.
My next computer might not be an Apple.
I know, it’s sounds crazy, but I’ve been really trying to think everything through.
“Fanboyism” is a very powerful groupthink dynamic and I don’t want to be sucked into it—again.
I remember when I made the switch from Windows to Apple. I became that person that said they would never go back, but alas, here I am entertaining the idea.
Earlier this month, my heart was struck with great joy and sadness.
While both of these seem like polar opposites, both events struck a chord with me in the same way. A lesson in life that I try to remind myself all the time.
Don, the man that gave me my first job, died this month.
I went several years without gaming.
There were several factors as to why I stopped (which I may write about in the future), and it’s been a lot of fun getting back into it these past several months.
The last game I ever played as a true gamer was Half-Life.
So when I began to venture back into the video gaming world, jumping on a sweet deal from Steam for the entire Half-Life series seemed fairly poetic.
At the end of 2014, I took a long shot.
I saw a job opening on the Church Relevance website and thought I would drop my name into the running.
Having read the job description, I figured I could handle it and their overall mission was very curious to me.
With a mention to it being a “telecommuting position,” the choice was easy. So, I followed through with the application process.
The weekend before last, we all loaded up into our car and drove down to Scerni, Italy.
The six hour drive took us back to a place where we lived for 4-years and it had been about a year since we had been back.
It was a great trip.
Me and the Mrs. enjoyed it.
The kids enjoyed it.
And their grandparents enjoyed it.
Here are some of the photos I snagged and shared on my Instagram:
