Hello and I hope you are enjoying your vacation still! My family and I visited Maui years ago and spent almost a month there. We were right on the ocean. None of us wanted to go back by the end of the trip. We were all relaxed, and at peace. My son was 12 at the time, and he even noticed it...

My son played competitive sports from the time he was 3 until now, 19. We have had experience with this and the “nastiness” that can come from the competitive behaviors. I think it still is dependent on the school, program, but specifically the coaches. The way the coaches demand the players...

I think your future child, should you have one, is in great hands! I’ve been reading a book about mindsets and how some are able to have a “growth” mindset, enjoying challenges. Others have a “fixed” mindset and avoid challenges and stop when things get difficult. At times I think I have both...

I stumbled onto every career I have had...the one thing that was found in every job was my hard work. I have excelled because of my work ethic and diligence. Rhecdriving force when I got to a certain age where I had to make a decision to change paths and find a more professional career was...

Yes I’m certain that is it! I read a book on it a while ago and can’t remember the certain vitamins that help. Judging people doesn’t solve anything. Education is the best we can do for the people suffering and their families. It’s devastating to all and very sad. I’m grateful I’ve never had any...

Thank you!! That makes me very happy!! 😂🤣😂I never get that kind of support!! But I have NEVER DONE 10000 words!! That’s AMAZING! What if you set a time frame for yourself?

Hello, I am very familiar with addiction including personal family members and professional experience. I have only seen one man completely overcome alcohol addiction. The only way he was able to do this was complete abstinence. His driving force was his family. There’s a theory that alcohol...

I totally understand! I have my degree and don’t plan on going further. So now is my time!! There’s a season for everything and yours will come! There are publishing classes too if you need guidance for that. To be that confidant that you could get published!! I hope I have that much confidence!!

More importantly I think is the difference in reactions and the way we look at things would be the reason to post. The reason people are willing to take a chance on an opinion or idea from another with a different background may be the exact opinion they needed to look at the problem...

I like that process of thought! I fear we set our people, even politicians, up for failure without strict, clear guideline to follow. It would be nice to hold everyone to a “higher standard”, but I’m not certain that works even for religious officiates that have strong connections with higher...

I like Wendy’s point. I find with my young adult son, the more I tell him, the less he listens. This is a growing and learning time for them. As long as she’s eating healthy at home and excercising is a family goal, I think you are doing the best you can. Give her good examples, but maybe let...

That is usually the way it goes, just by nature. I’m very fair, but I’m also very honest. If either of them are wrong, I say it. But our boy is now 19, and we have been together for 9 years. Shouldn’t these issues be overcome? I know life is about growing and growth is continual, but we have a...

The only struggle I feel my family has, which I am very grateful for, is understanding one another and having patience. This is a step child/step parent relationship with me, the biological parent, caught on the middle. I feel anxious when things are not going well. I try to let everyone have...

I can only assume that you have ruled out any medical issues like thyroid, horomones imbalances, an eating disorder, or depression. I attempted a vegetarian diet, and found I was gaining more weight than I ever have before. Some theories suggest that it’s more important to eat for your body...

What if this saying is true? What if the people we vote into power we inevitably lead to failure BECAUSE this quote is true? If we could find balance, putting restrictions on current times we allow people into power positions, could we help control the corruption that appears to inevitably lead...

I am currently reading this for the second time. As I watch our society develop, I can’t help but think back to what I read in this book. I wonder how much we will change? Will we go as far as this?

I have been writing poetry, children’s books, and began a few novels in the last few years. I would like to complete these projects, but find myself putting them off. My degree was not in writing, however, I wrote in every class! ☺️ I am attempting to sign myself up in an online writing class...
