"It doesn't matter what I eat anymore because I'm XX age, and I deserve to eat what I want?" I've earned it like it's another rite of passage. Seriously? There's an actual health cost of having … [Read more...] about The Cost of Getting What You Want
Oh Say Can You See (Literally)
Now that I no longer work at the business office at the other end of our hallway, I do not have the opportunity to see many of my neighbors. I still live in the building but no longer hold the boxful of titles I so cheerfully accepted. My passion for working with my peers has appeared in all my seasons of life.

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep
This world – this life – is not what those of us “of an age” grew up with in America. How blessed we were, were being the operative word. Surely, you’re aware of the differences. One obvious one is what you might call a kind of virus, now prevalent, one that is forcing us to face the level of our immunity to or against it: Fear.

Aging Is A Curable Disease And You Can Do It
Every year thousands of people reach their fifties and sixties and are designated "senior citizens." For them, youth is gone, never to return.

The Time to Choose Is Now
I wish I’d felt inspired to craft some other writing this month, but I didn’t. You see, I was at my office in Midtown Manhattan on that splendid Tuesday, September 11, 2001. And now, 20 years later, consider what’s happening in our country (USA)—especially at the southern border allowed to be open for nearly nine months (and in many ways, still is), in Afghanistan, and … [Read more...] about The Time to Choose Is Now
Staying Connected In A COVID Culture
In the past year, I can hardly remember when I could make a phone call, expecting to hear the voice of a representative and not have the COVID message reminding me of the changes and holding me longer due to the pandemic. So, on the one hand, I tried to understand; on the other, I was a bit annoyed. The eternal season of COVID had marched into our lives and taken us hostage. … [Read more...] about Staying Connected In A COVID Culture
Got White Hair? Try Orange!
Lately, my white hair has been annoying me. I think I'm going to change the color -- again. Thinking about the color I want to change it to, I remembered an article I wrote in 2007 that is just as relevant now as it was then.
