How many times do we hear we shouldn't be so stressed out? We should be in the constant namaste state of chill. Easier said than done, right? But unfortunately, we live in a fast-paced world where everything we do stresses us out. Even the morning alarm puts us in a stressful state.

What does all this stress do to our bodies? Where should I start? Let's start with … [Read more...] about Stress and Our Stressed-Out Endocrine System

First, something I look forward to every Friday is that Jamie Walden’s mom, Lisa, posts a from-the-heart faith-based message on her Facebook page. In a recent post, Lisa offered a suggested … [Read more...] about Where Is The Love?

Several years ago, my daughter told me that my grandson "Bill"  had a girlfriend," Mary," but he was reluctant to tell me about it because Mary was older than he was. Bill was aware that in our unyielding horse and buggy culture, a man is supposed to be older than a woman. Isn't it amazing that in our "anything goes" world,  we still give chronological age the power to rule … [Read more...] about The Angst And Agony Of Disobeying Society’s Age Rules

When I was working and coaching people on yearly business planning, it was so daunting to look at a 12-month plan and even more daunting to imagine sticking to it. People would get excited about the project, and at the same time, they wanted to give up because imagining the result in 365 days was overwhelming.

I would say most, if not all, processed food has some added sugar. I'm good about reading labels, and I always find those hidden "ose" sweeteners that great food adds to food to make food taste better. From jarred applesauce to catsup and jarred spices, you'll find the dreaded "ose's"  in our food. A few "ose'" examples are Dextrose, Fructose, Galactose, Glucose, … [Read more...] about Why Is It Critical to Control Blood Sugar

These kind people in Franklin, Massachusetts, allow me to participate in a weekly romp in literary joy with my peers. I mean, what could be nicer? We share our … [Read more...] about I’m Losing My Sight But I Have Divine Illumination

Ever had to unplug your modem to clear the cable transmission? That’s one way to look at what my experiences have been since the second week in December 2022.

It started when I asked God if there was something He wanted me to do. I was serious but not intense about this query. Well... He answered with, “Turn off your TV for one week and see what happens.” So I did. … [Read more...] about I Got Disconnected
