A Jellyfish Taught Me a Lesson That I Passed on to My Son

Last updated on: June 2, 2019 at 11:36 pm   By Eduardo Quintana

My son and I both got stung by jellyfish on our vacation. As usual, I try to find the teaching behind every circumstance and this was a good opportunity to teach my son a spiritual truth! Did you know that a jellyfish can’t swim? It just floats along in the sea, catching food in the long thread-like “legs” that trail behind it. Since it can only float, the jellyfish has to go wherever the current takes it. And sometimes the current takes... Read more

Like Father, Like Son – The Mistake You Must Avoid

Last updated on: May 10, 2019 at 11:30 pm   By Eduardo Quintana

I’ve enjoyed sharing a variety of common interests with my dad throughout my life. One of my favorite bonds has been related to music and singing. It started at a very early age. My parents tell a story of a time when dad was practicing a solo he had coming up at church, which was a common occurrence in our home. This particular instance, though, included my 2-year-old-self mimicking him throughout the house, singing “Jesus, Jesus, the sweetest name I... Read more

My Dad Taught Me to Fight and Never Stop – So I Did!

Last updated on: May 11, 2019 at 5:04 am   By Eduardo Quintana

It seems that for most of my life, I’ve had to fight for things, and this stems from my father. He stood for what was right for three hearing impaired children in a public school. Even though the school was not adequately equipped to handle disabled children, Dad fought for us to remain and face the challenges that lie ahead. His involvement, along with my mother’s, instilled a quit in me that has never ceased. I hear his word echo... Read more

What I Learned from My Dad – Remembering Dad’s Sacrifices for Me

Last updated on: May 11, 2019 at 5:49 am   By Eduardo Quintana

The company manufactured rayon and employed about three-thousand people during World War II. I was very happy Dad got the job. He had been working for the WPA building roads.

All That is Necessary for Evil to Triumph is for Good Men to do Nothing

Last updated on: May 11, 2019 at 6:03 am   By Eduardo Quintana

Edmund Burke is quoted as saying, “All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.” If all we need to do, as “good men”, is something, then, how much more does it take for us to become ‘great’ men. I argue that it takes doing something intentionally. When I entered the workforce, I was determined not to become a slave to my career. I made an intentional decision to be home for dinner with the... Read more

The Legacy of the Man That Was and Is – by Andy Specht

Last updated on: May 11, 2019 at 6:37 am   By Eduardo Quintana

What our fathers were help shape us today. The influence of these things are too hard to count and impact us and our children. My father was a lot of things and those things have taught me many lessons that have helped me in the path I’m on now. My father was raised by the Greatest Generation. His parents were raised during the Great Depression, a time when hard work is what got you food on the table. They turned... Read more
