The unknown parenting future Who can tell ahead of time what the experience of parenting will be like? Technology can let you know the gender of a baby, and sometimes it can diagnose a health issue in the womb. But technology can’t tell you this individual’s personality or forecast her or his future.

Some factors are in the home environment, and some factors are randomly and, possibly, senselessly thrust upon a family. So, the li ..read more

“No amount of regret will change your past. No amount of worry will change your future. But ANY amount of gratitude can change your right now.” Hello Dearhearts, How is today treating you? Or a different way to ask this question is how are YOU treating today? Today IS a new day and, perhaps, you will take moments throughout it to be aware of what is going well, what is going right today. When you take time for yourself to enjoy what IS beautiful you may experience your own Resurrection. Our own thoughts, while numerous, can be slowed down and evaluated as to whether they are serving us. Do ..read more

Look at your past with “kindsight”

Stop beating yourself up about things from the past. Instead of slapping your forehead and asking, “What was I thinking?” Breathe. And ask the kinder question, What was I learning?” Karen Salmansohn We all have experiences which challenged and tested us. Some regrets are there, no doubt. But what if, just WHAT IF we decided to look more kindly at ourselves for those decisions we made at that time? It is easy to see how we can improve on things in retrospect. But what if we TRULY realized we were doing the absolute best we could at that time? And whatever you want to chalk up the faulty decis ..read more

“You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; and just so you learn to love God and man by loving. Begin as a mere apprentice and the very power of love will lead you on to become a  master of the art.” Francis de Sales You can read any number of books or websites to learn strategies for improving your performance but the real learning comes when you actually do the work. And when you make a mistake–and you will–don’t get discouraged, keep going. A year from now, you likely won’t remember the mistake. And if a year from now you still rememb ..read more

Spring ahead to good sleep

Except for Arizonians and Hawaiians, a collective groan is being moaned across the U.S., this week as people hit the snooze alarm to compensate for the hour’s loss of sleep from springing ahead with Daylight Saving Time. But even Arizonians and Hawaiians cross-country travel, so they, too, can be heard calculating hours lost from time zone changes and Daylight Saving. With a few minor adjustments in your schedule, though, you can bounce back from the lost hour without using over-the-counter or prescription sleep aids. The circadian system is a flexible, internal clock whic ..read more

Covid-19 has drawn attention to the strengths and weaknesses of our healthcare system. If you become ill or have a family member with a debilitating illness or a disability, then your schedule is built around finding good medical care to provide the therapy, tests, or medication you or your loved one needs to be as healthy as possible. Medical care is expensive, even for simple routine office visits. However, people have options in how they obtain and find money to pay for care.

How to find God when the lights are off

God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM”; and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ Exodus 3:14 “It is what it is” is a popular expression. Usually, people say this in response to a situation they don’t like, such as a disaster, divorce, a firing, a death in the family, and they don’t have the will or capacity to change it or the patience to wait for God to change it. It’s their polite, civilized way to say “f*** it, I don’t care anymore and apparently neither does God.” The human tendency seems to be to cave to the forces of the outside world but at a spiri ..read more

Welcome to 2021. Did you make a commitment to live healthier this year? Perhaps, you decided to try a dry January, to reset after 2020’s stress drinking and eating. Here we are, ½ way through the month and you may be tempted to water down dry January, especially with the stress of living under COVID restrictions and some of the other national events we have faced. But maintaining limits in your alcohol use is one of the best steps you can take to enhance your health to fight off COVID should you be so unfortunate as to contract the virus. Many people use alcohol as part of an evening wind-dow ..read more

One person IS important

Earth’s people have so many needs it can seem impossible to believe our efforts can make a meaningful difference. As soon as we clean up or improve one problem, another one pops up. You and I are only here for a short time. We barely make a dent. When I was in college I worked evenings at the Des Moines Register. The desk I shared with one of the reporters had this story about saving the starfish taped to her computer. I never forgot this story and it has helped me persevere through times when compassion fatigue or burnout have overwhelmed me. This story helped me focus on the importance of ..read more

Finding your way in a disaster

Talk about detours. I’ve spent many hours discussing with people the existentialist confusion that has struck us during the worldwide pandemic known as COVID-19. Much of the work I do is centered on helping people find a context for this angst. No crystal ball can forecast what lies ahead. I have posed this question to everyone: “If I had told you one year ago today that we would all be in a lock-down status in our homes, would you have believed me?” “No Way!” is the universal response. Now, some people have toyed with the idea because of their own conspiracy theory predispositions. “Yes, I ..read more
