Love is buying a gift for that special someone, not on a holiday or occasion, but just because you know it will make her smile. Love is sharing your last piece of lasagna with her. Love is trying to share every dream and bucket list item with that special person when time is the enemy. Love is staying awake for days watching him labor to breathe because you promised you would be there forever, and…
The current global pandemic has taken a great many things from society. In many cases, people have lost their freedom to leave home, their job or livelihood, loved ones, and more. These things were taken, and there was no way to avoid the loss. But some things can never be taken from you. You must choose to give them up. Things like dignity and self-respect are entirely within your control. Please remember that and act…
I believe that most people do for others with purely unselfish motivation. We give, share, offer, and support because we want to help someone else rather than because of some ulterior motive. And it is because of that motivation, that we experience the law of tenfold return. It is nature’s way, or the universes way, of reinforcing to us that it is better to give than to receive. Because when you give for the right…
Some people might come up with the question, but who is Mary? These people might not necessarily be non-believers but could be people of little faith or even people proclaiming of having a strong faith. The ‘Hail Mary’ prayer answers this question of who Mary is. The ‘Hail Mary’ prayer has the following wording: Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of…
As I have gotten older, it has become more apparent to me that many of our holidays have been trivialized by commercialism. We feel so much stress and anxiety about creating the perfect mood, preparing the right foods, and purchasing the best gifts. And somewhere in all of these preparations and worry, we forget about the meaning or significance of the day. As we celebrate Easter today, the first significant holiday during the pandemic of…

We are all basically stuck at home for the foreseeable future. And the way I see it, we have two choices. You can sulk around like you have been grounded for some minor offense or even a mistake that was not your fault. Or, you can choose to take this time and make it the best that it can be. You are in your own home and can do pretty much whatever you want. And…
In this world, we don’t always get to pick where we are going or be in control of our own destiny. And right now, many of us feel like lost ships being tossed about by a raging ocean. But this is one of those times when you need to focus on why you are here rather than how you got here. Individually, none of us have the power to fix the situation. We must patiently…
While a great deal has changed for everyone in recent weeks, the most important things in this world will never change. And it seems that all of them I can trace back to the lessons that my parents work so long and hard to teach me: Treat people the way that you want to be treated. A little kindness goes a long way.
