Howdy,<\/p>\n
I am Larry Michalk.\u00a0 Yes, I\u2019m a Texan.\u00a0 I grew up naturally saying \u201cHowdy\u201d long before two of my kids went to Texas A & M where it\u2019s the official greeting.<\/p>\n
I paid my dues up north with my last three years of college in Nebraska.\u00a0 Then I paid my dues in the big city of South Florida for seventeen years.\u00a0 For sure I\u2019ve got the record for time spent there by a Texan.\u00a0 Now I\u2019m back where I belong, not far from where I grew up.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll be sharing a variety here—something for everyone—sometimes all over the map—but always returning to the foundation for my life.\u00a0 You\u2019ll see:<\/p>\n
A Word For Thought<\/p>\n
A Word For Fun<\/p>\n
A Word For Everyone<\/p>\n
Enjoy—Think—Respond<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My writing is not a novel to be read in one sitting.\u00a0 It has no plot—except the plot to catch you with the humorous, mix it with the serious, and make a difference in your life with the \u201cparts that are for keeps.\u201d<\/p>\n
My life, and my writing, is dedicated to putting a smile on the face of Jesus and people—especially people who catch the \u201cparts that are for keeps.”<\/p>\n

A WORD FOR THOUGHT<\/p>\n
Before technology, did we know we were worse off?<\/p>\n
Were we?<\/p>\n
Were we worse then, or worry worse now?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
