God Does
Do you sometimes feel like nobody gets you? God does. Is there someone in your life who just won’t forgive you? God does. Do you have a hard time forgiving yourself? God does. Do you sometimes feel you have no strength left? God does. You are not alone. We all need help in this world.…

What Do You See
Perspective 1: Why can’t you see it? Why can’t you see what they’re doing to us and our country? Perspective 2: What are you talking about? They’re not doing anything. You’re just a conspiracy theorist. Perspective 1: I don’t understand. Can’t you see that they are saying one thing, but doing another? They’re lying to…

Be Yourself and Don’t Apologize
I have a picture on my office wall that says, “Be Yourself and Don’t Apologize.” I think about it all the time. Am I being myself? My Dad jokingly says that he’s been married to at least 3 different women, all of whom are my mother over the past 61 years. Kevin can say the…

What’s Coming In 2025: Did You Feel The Earthquake?
Is something bad coming this year? I’m sure you’ve heard some rumors too. Earthquakes, World War III, or maybe another viral virus is own it’s way. I’m old enough to remember when the world was going to collapse in the year 2000 (Y2K). I was scared to go to work that week. I was working…

Coping with the Loss of a Beloved Pet

The Power of Forgiveness: Letting Go of Grudges
You’ve probably heard it said, “Holding on to anger is like grabbing a hot coal to throw it at someone else, but you’re the one who gets burned.” (Paraphrasing a quote attributed to Buddha.) Life is hard enough without holding on to grudges. We free ourselves when we let go and let God. When we…

The Power of New Beginnings: Create the Life You Love
AH Spring! It’s finally here: The sunshine, the beautiful flowers, and trees with those brand new lime green leaves. Yes! It feels good being in nature working in the flowerbeds, planting gardens, and mowing the lawn. It’s enjoyable watching your children, (in my case — grandchildren), play in the yard. What a wonderful feeling and…

Labels and Judgement
I saw a Facebook post the other day, where somebody expressed their anger or frustration towards labels. Have you ever judged something or someone, only to find yourself doing the thing you were judging? I know I’m not the only one. It’s ironic that we do such things. I’ve often wondered if it was a…
