Sharing is a Superpower
I often wonder why we are frequently afraid to share. Many of us are taught to keep our personal thoughts, talents, and feelings to ourselves.

Now, as I get a few more years under my belt. I realize that you can never outgrow the need for self-motivation. Once, I... Sign in to see full entry.

The Care Giver Needs A Care Giver.
Last Wednesday, my wife had an operation on the heel of her left foot. She has been having issues for a year. The surgery was successful, and we knew she would have a cast. So we planned well. We got her a knee scooter and a shower chair. I dug up all of our crutches and canes. I am on summer break... Sign in to see full entry.

Is Your Can Upside Down
Often, I learn valuable life lessons from performing simple everyday tasks. Yesterday I was preparing dinner. I was opening a can of green beans with an electric can opener.

Who Cares About Our Seniors
I am so frustrated with how we ignore the truth. Government policy proves that few people care. In 2023, when I was laid off. I got eaten up by the IRS. My small business enterprises helped me tremendously. Yet I still ended up needing to set up a payment plan. Now, after the new administration came... Sign in to see full entry.
