A Little Retro Fun! A Guest Post By AMY TEMPLE

I recently discovered that my cable provider has 3 or 4 channels that air classic television shows.  I got to say these are very interesting and downright fun!    I have discovered television programs I enjoyed when I was a kid like “Silver Spoons”, “Webster” and “Benson”. I got to confess that I have gotten hooked on the “Benson” repeats.  I record all the episodes onto my DVR.  What a funny show! I love the…

There Is No I, But Maybe An IOU…

A team is not something that you can force people to become. It takes leadership, guidance, and enough concern for each individual to win their loyalty. In a team, each member has faith in his or her teammates to do what is best for the team as a whole, rather than doing what is best for the individual. It is that faith and dedication to the common goal that binds the individuals together and ensures…

Choose To Refuse Chaos

For the most part, people whose lives are in constant chaos choose to live under those stressful and unhealthy conditions. Some like the feel of constant pressure, while others simply don’t know any better or don’t know how to put a stop to the chaos. But you also have the choice to not be a part of their world of constant issues, concern, and drama.  Just as many people choose to downsize their homes to…

Your Imagination…The Ocean Of Your Mind

The ocean covers about 70% of the earth’s surface, leaving only 30% for land. And of that nearly three-quarters of the earth that is our ocean, we have only explored a minute 5%! What that really means is that we have barely scratched the surface of what is our earth. So what does this have to do with your mind you ask… Life is so busy and crammed with activities that few people really take…

A Gift From Granddad – A Guest Post By AMY TEMPLE

One of my greatest possessions is my maternal grandfather’s collection of Big Band music. Granddad had two listening areas:  a desk in the living room and a small table at the upstairs landing. Each had a set of drawers filled with tapes. Whenever I would visit,  he and I would often sit together and just listen.   I think Granddad looked forward to having me come over because that meant he had someone else who really…

Be Thankful

It is truly amazing how something so simple can make you stop and think for a moment if you are just willing to let the sound, sight, or event really reach you. In today’s ultra-busy world, we often try to block out the sounds and distractions of our everyday world. But they can lead to some very profound moments of gratitude. As I am sitting at my desk working on a Friday midmorning, I notice…

WE DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT! A Guest Post By GBADEBO ADEBAYO

  WE DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT to call/insult anyone as miserable/poor/broke… and leave them on that same spot. What have we actually done to alleviate their miseries? Other than constantly remind them how miserable their lives are? Maybe we think we have the right to insult them (just maybe), but WE DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT to insult and not proffer solution(s) to aid their miseries. What are we doing to better their lives? Other than…

A Change Of Plans

Sometimes attaining success is as simple as opening your mind and your eyes to what is right in front of you. As adults, we all know that we don’t always get what we want. And in some cases, we don’t get anything that we thought we wanted. But every time you put in the effort, there are good things that come back to you. And you need to take a look at those things to…
