It used to be (and it might still be if it was allowed to be) you could give a little boy a stick, and he could entertain himself for hours. That was true of a ball. And a tree. And a backyard. Everything had the potential to be transformed into homemade toys. All that was required was imagination. But imagination has waned. And homemade … The rest of the story…
Negative and positive attitudes can both be caused by something. And you can look around and see plenty of places to put (or lay) the blame. Tyrants in control of many (or most) of the nations. Self-serving, thieving politicians. Ubiquitous drugs, legal and illegal. And the list goes on. But I believe negative and positive attitudes are actually your fault. Because, ultimately, YOU decide … The rest of the story…
My love for letters and words began long before my first day of school. Many of my earliest memories are of my Grandmother and my Mom reading stories and the Sunday “funnies” to me. And I think the word pictures from those stories and comic strips led, in part, to my lifelong habits of observation. Here’s how I see it (pun slightly intended) observation … The rest of the story…
When you get right down to it, it’s pretty easy to brew up a good batch of anger issues. Right? Yeah, pretty much anyone can do it. With one arm tied behind ’em. And since that’s true, think about honeybees. “Huh? Honeybees and anger issues?” Honeybees build waxy honeycombs. And that’s where they store their larvae and the nectar they gather from flowers. Honeycomb cells are … The rest of the story…
OK, so I’m gonna preach a little bit. So, if you’d rather not subject yourself to that, fair warning. Close your eyes, ears, email, or computer and move on. If you’re still here, here I go. You’ve seen ’em. On TV. And on the internet. Those guys who lay their healing hands on people and miraculously heal them. You’ve seen ’em. Right? And you … The rest of the story…
Anger management. Ironically, most of the people who think other people are the people who need anger management seem to be so angry about it. And that makes me so angry. Not really. I’m just using absurdity to expose absurdity. The reason I brought it up is because of an article on the subject. And it talked about how some people (weak-minded ones) are … The rest of the story…
Live well and be well because you can’t be sick and inspire…at least not for long. Oh, you think you can? Think again. You need your health. It’s not just something that’s nice to have around. It’s the core essential to any job you do or any career you have. Don’t just be sick. Because the world needs you to Be Well. Whether they … The rest of the story…
OK, for this meeting of Overeaters Anonymous, I’d like to pick up where we left off during the last meeting. And that, of course, is the ever-important issue. Dessert: before or after the meal? And while Albert reads the minutes of the last meeting, let’s all sample this excellent crab dip. Mm..Mm. Overeaters Anonymous is my favorite group. My only question is…why be anonymous? … The rest of the story…
Imagine feeling drowsy all day. In fact, actually falling asleep at your desk right in the middle of work. And imagine, on top of all that, you’re dizzy, a little confused, and you can’t get rid of that nagging headache. OK, what if I told you that you might be suffering from Hypercapnia? Sounds serious, right? And it is. And another name for it … The rest of the story…
