Already Gone

One of the criticisms often laid at my door is that I am too aggressive.  Now, that is a valid observation because I am, in fact, wound too tight.  That’s a personality trait which, for those of us blessed or cursed to have it, comes in handy or not so handy depending on the situation.  Some of us f

This is for All the Lonely People

We don’t do well alone.  Now, there are some people with a solitary bent, and there’s nothing wrong with that per se.  It’s a personality trait that is neither good nor bad.  One of the things about personality traits- they don’t change.  We can modify behavior, but the basic traits remain.  Some pe

The Good Wife

Many things are deemed “family” in our day.  While this is, sometimes, observed to be a misuse of the term by those concerned that the nuclear family bear that primary designation, it is not unreasonable to use the stipulation for groups other than blood relatives.  It is true, however, that people

The Movement You Need

I want something I can get behind.  So much of life is mere rote.  Bor-ing!  Think of all the repetitive tasks that are as crippling as the song that never ends.  Like the mail, they just keep on coming.  These are legitimate and strength-sapping employments that never yield a payoff.  I need, we ne

If Only…

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have a crazy life.  In over three years of class surveys, I have never had anyone score a low stress level.  I have begun to think that all of the stress-relieving products and information (including spiritual) do no good.  It may be a hallmark of our times that we ar

The Hyperopic Church

People with hyperopia can see well far away but not nearby.  It’s called farsightedness.  Those suffering can expect to have eyestrain, headaches and other symptoms caused by trying to concentrate and focus on the things that are near.  The problem, of course, is that most things we have to deal wit

Playing Hurt

Many sports records are matters of longevity.  Now, of course, single game, single season, etc. records are not, but the records that are most remembered are the career records.  In many ways they are the most significant.  Often, when records are eclipsed, it is a matter of changes in the game that

The Seal and Souls

The seal of our salvation is the resurrection of Christ from the dead.  Now, it can be argued that no part of the old, old story can be left unfulfilled and our redemption be valid, but the resurrection was God’s final stamp of approval on Jesus and His redemptive work.  Leave off the validation, an

Starting Over

There was only one prohibition in the Garden of Eden, but it carried a stiff penalty.  If you eat the fruit of this one tree, you will die.  Do as you will with the rest of the trees in the garden, but stay away from this one.  Now, most of us will think that this should have been relatively easy to

It’s for the Best

How many times when what you wanted not to happen happened did an unconnected soul say, “It’s for the best?” There are just enough times that it is true to justify this blanket and bold assertion to the masses.  Though, sometimes, what we want is not what the best is, it is also true that what we w
