I was listening to Frank Sinatra sing "When  Your Lover  Has  Gone." As he moaned and groaned his way through the lyrics, I couldn't help but think how much those words applied to some retirees who loved their work so much that it was clear their job was pretty much the sum and substance of their life. It was painful to let it go. Many seniors suffer from depression, which … [Read more...] about When What You Love Is Gone

“I’ll never deny Jesus!” Maybe that’s something you’ve told yourself or others, same as I have. And maybe you meant it, same as I did—do. It was during a conversation with a friend that I realized there’s more than one way to deny Jesus. And most of us do this every day, without meaning to and without realizing it. Among topics my friend and I spoke of, this … [Read more...] about Denial

Recently, I joined a FaceBook group whose title seemed inviting:  Christian Seniors Over 70!  I thought, Well, shiver me timbers! Perhaps I have found a group that I can relax in. You know, a place where like-minded older people can sit around the virtual fire, be comfortable in their skin, and praise the Lord, all at the same time! Now, experience with these types of … [Read more...] about Well, Shiver Me Timbers ! I Found A Great Group — Or Did I?

We have had our second Coup here in America. We are about to lose our freedom. The first Coup occurred in 1963 when JFK was murdered by our government, by the CIA, FBI and the then VP, Johnson. That has led us to today. The second was the blatant theft of the 2020 election. The same groups are involved. Since then, we are ruled by an unelected Junta in DC. The patriots … [Read more...] about A Quick Summary of Fatal Dangers Facing America

In 1950, Dinah Shore sang this famous jingle. I wasn't born yet and vaguely remember the jingle growing up. I bring up this nostalgic memento because my husband Bob, our dog Zeke, and I just completed a 6,134-mile road trip to see the USA in our class B RV on a Chevrolet chassis. We were gone for 38 days. We left AZ and reached Kittery, Maine, and exciting spots. Many people … [Read more...] about “See the USA in Your Chevrolet”

A young woman often asks, "How can I put old on hold?" She's understandably annoyed if I tell her to read my book. The questioner usually expects a quick and easy magic answer. It's easy if you start early in life and follow through with a growth-oriented mindset,  diet, and lifestyle. But Before anything else, you have to ask and  answer  some essential questions: Do … [Read more...] about It’s Not Over Until It’s Over

We believe we are born alive into/onto a living world, from which we one day die. What if we mistakenly have it backwards?

May 12, 2024, while spending time with God and His Word, I wrote the gist of this in my prayer journal: According to Almighty God, as a result of the fall from His grace by Adam and Eve, all their descendants (that’s us) are tainted with … [Read more...] about What If We Have It Backwards?

Life and relationships, it seems to be a topic on everyone’s mind . . .

Yes, I am a man, so this topic may appear may seem one sided.

But, open your mind and consider . . .

Men are strong and resilient, yet, they are NOT unbreakable.

Many a man shows up in my office . . . broken.

Anyone who thinks the typical American diet provides all the required nutritional elements to stay healthy is seriously misguided. Don't bother asking most doctors for nutritional guidance. You will likely be told: "Just eat a balanced diet, and you will be fine. Don't waste your money on vitamins." Overlook that he was probably not taught about nutrition in medical school. … [Read more...] about How Seniors Can Easily Boost Their Health

Life is simple, but we do everything possible to make it hard. We tend to live exclusively in the past or become fortune tellers about the future. So why can't we live in the present moment? For most people, it's tough to do. I asked people if they could stay now; most didn't understand the concept. They can't keep their mind from thinking about past or future events.
