Holy Moments – Making a Difference Now

Posted on December 10, 2022December 10, 2022 by Bud Boughton

“But eventually all of our graves go unattended.” This quote is attributed to Conan O’Brien after being dismissed from his dream job of hosting The Tonight Show for fewer than eight months. An interesting quote if not a little dark. If nothing else, it might give one reason to contemplate cremation. But, instead of thinking […]

The Marathon Called Life

Posted on November 28, 2022November 28, 2022 by Bud Boughton

For some strange reason, I think about it every fall. Should I, would I, ever consider trying to run one more marathon? I know. It sounds pretty stupid when you consider I am now 71 years old and while considered “active” for my age group, I have not run consistently for at least 10 years. […]

Finding Happiness-The Journey Continues

Posted on October 18, 2022October 20, 2022 by Bud Boughton

Four years ago I wrote a blog entitled “Finding Happiness – What’s so hard about it?” In that blog I highlighted the fact that Yale University had offered a course on “Finding Happiness” and over 1,200 students had registered for the course making it THE most popular course ever offered at the prestigious university. Now, […]

A Back to School Message For Mom and Dad

Posted on August 31, 2022August 31, 2022 by Bud Boughton

It’s that time of year – “Back to School!”  Woohoo! And yes, thankfully, this year (2022)  most of the kids are actually going back to school. Not online school, not virtual classes, but ‘physically’ going back to school. Once again our children (or grandchildren for many of us) will finally be  ‘physically’ back in their […]

A Celebration of Life, A Celebration of Faith

Posted on July 12, 2022July 12, 2022 by Bud Boughton

I didn’t get to know them until the Fall of 2007.  It was my first season helping coach the Franklin College Football Team and Anna and George Leonard were faithful fans pretty much attending every Franklin College football game. Of course, that was to be expected as their youngest son, Mike, was the Head Football […]

My Open Letter on Gun Control to ALL Members of Congress

Posted on June 6, 2022June 6, 2022 by Bud Boughton

Let me begin by explaining who I am and why I am taking the time to write this letter to every member of Congress. I am an American citizen just days from my  71st birthday. I am a devout Christian (a white male if you care to know) who was raised by wonderful parents (my […]

Senseless, Horrific Violence. What’s changed? What can we do?

Posted on May 26, 2022May 26, 2022 by Bud Boughton

“Pray Constantly” – 1st Thessalonians 5:17 It’s happened again. Oh yeah, and it happened just 10 days before in a supermarket in Buffalo, New York and 5 days later in a California church.  But this one, if possible, was even more horrific because it killed 19 innocent, beautiful children in an elementary school. How, why […]

The Technology Connection to ‘Sense of Self’ and Mental Health

Posted on May 6, 2022May 6, 2022 by Bud Boughton

Three years ago, I wrote about this very topic and yet now, I feel more compelled than ever before to write on this subject. Back in 2019 I quoted Nicholas Carr from his controversial article some ten years earlier in The Atlantic Monthly, entitled, “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” In the article he suggested that […]

Paying it forward always beats getting paid

Posted on March 26, 2022March 26, 2022 by Bud Boughton

We’ve all heard the expression “Pay it Forward.” Essentially, to ‘pay it forward’ simply means that when someone performs an act of kindness for you, instead of paying that person back directly with a similar act of kindness, you instead perform an act of kindness for someone else. For anyone who has ever engaged in […]
