Thumbnail image for The Meal. The Moment. The Memory. by Lauren Rosenfeld December 16, 2011

                                      If you only looked at the raw ingredients, it didn’t really amount to much.  Pancake mix. Water. Food coloring.  But then there were other ingredients as well: creativity, ingenuity, resourcefulness, cooperation, generosity, lovingkindness. James and I [...]

Got the Rainy Day Blues?

Thumbnail image for Got the Rainy Day Blues? by Paula O Sullivan November 28, 2011

I was standing in a shop looking out the window at the rain, the other day, when a man commented that it was awful when it was raining, as you couldn’t go out anywhere. I was going to ask him if that was so, then how the heck did he get here, like was he [...]

I talk to you all the time about the moments that count. However, I understand there are a lot of you out there who think that a bunch of your moments do not count for as much as you’d like them to. So you’ve asked me if, well, you can store them somewhere to use [...]

Reasons why we sing

Thumbnail image for Reasons why we sing by Kevin Robison November 5, 2011

It’s been one of those summers. You think things are going one way, then suddenly life throws a curve, and then a curve back, and all of the sudden you feel like you are on an endless slalom. The ride can be fun, but when you find yourself passing very big trees at a very [...]

by Kristie Wang Transforming inmates into entrepreneurs in Texas — and saving millions of tax dollars Texas has been the center of a swirl of controversy lately in two very different arenas: the state’s enthusiastic embrace of the death penalty, and Republican frontrunner Rick Perry’s touted track record of job creation.

What is the thing you most want or wish for? Place no limits on your answer to this question. Let your mind go wherever it chooses. Is what comes to mind something you wish for yourself or something you want for someone else? What do you visualize will be different when this change materializes? What [...]

What can kangaroos teach us about neonatal care? David and Kate Ogg found out when their baby, Jamie, was born barely clinging to life at 26 weeks and was declared dead shortly after birth. Well, Jamie is very much alive, thanks to some very good instincts on Kate’s part. It’s called the Kangaroo Cuddle and [...]

Thumbnail image for Cynicism is a cinch by Brooke Leigh Sheldon June 29, 2011

I have come to a realization. Cynicism is a cinch! Perhaps you know some people who are true masters of cynicism. Let me help you identify them. They are pretty easy to recognize.
