Arrivals are great. Unfortunately, they are often hard to reach. Evenb when you do sometimes you have to get up and work even harder to get to the next one. A good friend of mine just graduated from 2 massage therapy schools. She’s headed now for the fruits of her labors. [...]

"Be Nice!" I Said to Myself

Boy that is sometimes easier said than done. Have you ever got so uppity at someone only to find out later you were wrong? It’s a bad feeling let me tell you. Kind of like when your baby has a really bad diaper and for the life of you you can’t remember [...]

To me this is such an excellent thought. I’d say about 70-80% of ALL our anxiety is borne out of imagined conclusions. We could turn that imagination into creative thoughts to make our lives [...]

Collective Male ID Crisis: My Guest Post on the Man Page

What are we today as men? Should we be the cowboys that ride in on horses and save the town? Clint Eastwood might have an opinion on that. More importantly, what do our women expect of us in 2008? This is a crucial topic I wrote a guest post on and Derek Semmler published it [...]
