		<description><![CDATA[I have a question for you&#8230;
Do you think the world is ready for a children&#8217;s book about the Power of Mortality™?  The aim is to teach kids that life is precious and we need to live every last minute of it.
Thoughts?

(And yes, I&#8217;m aware of the irony of using a 33 year-old song to remind you to stay in the present.)

		<description><![CDATA[Today is the first of August.
It&#8217;s a beautiful day. Perfect summer weather. The kids and I have been taking advantage of one of our city&#8217;s splash pads.
The kids are running through the water sprinklers and making new friends. I&#8217;m sitting in the shade and reading a book.
Like I said, a perfect summer day.
And then this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just because something is a cliché, doesn&#8217;t mean it isn&#8217;t true.
In 2005, my son was only 3 years old and even then he knew that you need to stop and smell the flowers.
This past week, I&#8217;ve been reminded of the wisdom behind that old cliché.  As I drive to my office each day, I drive [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have some big, philosophical questions for you to consider.

Are you living your life, or is your life living you?
Do you give meaning to life, or does life give meaning to you?
Is your life all about you, or are you all about your life?

There&#8217;s no right or wrong answer.  But here&#8217;s the key: If you [...]]]></description>

The barcode represents my &#8216;expiry date&#8217;.  When I was 18 years old, I had a cardiologist tell me that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just because you&#8217;re hiding from something doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s not happening.
In the past, (I&#8217;ll admit it) I&#8217;ve been guilty of trying to hide from my life. One of my favorite games of &#8220;hide and don&#8217;t seek&#8221; went like this:  &#8220;The bills aren&#8217;t really &#8216;valid&#8217; until I open the envelope&#8230; so if I don&#8217;t open the [...]]]></description>
