Here is a list of my tips to fight off this flu: HYDRATE: Drink a glass of water when you first wake up. Fill yourself a reusable bottle/cup and sip on it the rest ... [Read More…]
What makes America great?
There were over 500,000 "Make America Great Again" hats sold during the Trump campaign, but during this entire period, how many times did we stop to think about what really made us a great nation? I would argue that our nation isn't great because of a strong military or anything tangible. What makes our nation the greatest country in the world is ... [Read More…]
Think twice before picking the Eagles in Super Bowl LII

Current immigration practices don’t reflect our values
Our nation was founded on immigrating for a better life, to escape a vicious ruler and to pursue freedom from inequality. But when it comes to immigration, our nation can’t seem to find practices that reflect these principles. Our current practices are at odds with our history. America, in principle, stands for everything great in the world. We ... [Read More…]

Reading is a spiritual discipline

8 a.m. classes a terrible idea; science tells us so
We've all been there. We've all seen someone else do it. Just this last Wednesday, I witnessed 3 people do it and it's only the second week of school. That's right, I'm talking about people falling asleep in their 8 a.m. classes.
