Posted on December 19, 2012 by D3 Support

Around the holidays, people often ask me about greed and why the season is so ‘materialistic.’ Well, I don’t believe there’s such a thing as ‘materialism.’ All of us need and want material things. It’s only a matter of degree. … Continue reading →

Posted on December 18, 2012 by D3 Support

Pride in a job well done (Delaware Wave)

Posted on December 4, 2012 by D3 Support

Say no to bullies! (Delaware Coast Press)

Posted on November 28, 2012 by D3 Support
