This Is Rude
Yesterday morning, as I was traveling back into Hoboken at about 9 am, I watched the morning rush of people scurrying about. I saw many mom's with their strollers, young ladies, dog's and their owners, and one couple. What jumped out at me was that everyone was face...

Motivational Monday
It's September 11th—this day, alone, should be motivation enough. It should make us all nicer, more compassionate, more forgiving, work harder, dream bigger, act on anything we really want, love more, burry the hatchet, stop gossiping, stop judging, call...

I was coming into my apartment building the other day and I decided to go through the revolving door. It's interesting to me that this is usually my last choice of ways to enter my building. There is an unlocked door to the left, a locked door to the right that opens...
