Back to Work Soon

I worked hard this summer. This is the first job that I have ever had, where I am allowed to take the summer off and still get paid. Yet I worked harder than I ever have due to my caregiving duties. Today I attended mandatory In-Service training for my county job. Every year, we are required to have... Sign in to see full entry.

My Friday Thank You

I am always thankful for every day and every week. I found a great quote that says it all. “ Life is short. Be silly. Have fun. Love the people who treat you right; forget the ones who don’t. Regret nothing. Believe everything happens for a purpose… and seek that purpose!” -Karen Salmansohn Have a... Sign in to see full entry.

Sometimes You Have to Take Care of You

One of my biggest shortcomings is that. No matter how much I try to block it. I care about what others think way too much. My saving grace has been the example my father set for me. He was always his own man. Now he listened, but he always followed his own path. Tuesday was the funeral for our... Sign in to see full entry.

Action Speaks Louder than Words

Wishing everyone a Happy Monday and a fantastic week. I have been working my you know what off the entire month of July. Caring for your injured loved ones is not an easy task. The doctor removed Melodys cast last week. Now she is in a boot. Which is heavier than the cast? So now I have to check her... Sign in to see full entry.

Bless The Beast and The Children

Thank God for the kind, generous spirit of children. CBS Sunday morning featured a story of a 9-year-old boy's special birthday wish. When I was young, my wish would have been for the latest greatest toy at the time. Grant Mullen of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, had a very special request. Grant's father is... Sign in to see full entry.

I Just Dont Get It

Every summer, yet another parent or caregiver leaves a child in a hot car. The child loses his life because they forgot them. It is a highly preventable outcome. When you remember your priorities. This occurs too many times. A 3-year-old child in Alabama. Who was under the care of child protective... Sign in to see full entry.

Is Anyone Paying Attention

We are living in perilous times. All the signs point to consequences that will and are already affecting us all. I have a friend who is an immigration lawyer. He shared with me an illustration that tells a clear story of the very dangerous path our immigration policies will lead to. This is not the... Sign in to see full entry.

Super Woman The Angel of The Battlefield

I love women. When you are blessed to be raised by a superwoman. Then you marry a superwoman. You notice these things. CBS Sunday Morning did a story on Clara Barton. She has a hidden museum in downtown D.C. It is known as the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers' Museum. Her old office had become a shoe... Sign in to see full entry.

Sometimes We Must Be the Sunshine

When I completed basic training for the Air Force. The first thing they do after they call you rainbows (Everyone is wearing street clothes of different colors). And then make you stand at attention while you watch all your fellow airmen get all their hair cut off. Which was hard to do. Because in... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

Michael's Lessons from life is my view of the lessons I have learned from the simple to the complex. My father and mother, blessed me with a simple, non complicated way of living and loving life. In a world where it seems the negative has taken over. I want to share a positive, enlightened view of the world as I have experienced it. Including my view of what is happening today.
