YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU. HOW’S IT GOING?

Human nature kicks in hard on the question of right or wrong. You always want to be right. So does the person who is wrong. If it’s too hard to decide who is right or wrong, find a third-party, but first agree to live with their decision. The biggest problem with right or wrong is […]

SPEAKING TO THE ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP

Yes, you. You know who you are. The idea of wild life for Baby Boomers? The older the whole groups gets, the more the definition changes. You get that when 10,000 Boomers a day hit retirement age. When grandchildren start flipping though photo albums and see what you used to look like, try not to […]

BOOMER RELATIONSHIPS: GOING FOR THE WIN-WIN

Whether husband or wife, childhood friend or college pal, you eventually get this question: “Be honest. I want to ask an important question and I’d like an honest answer. Am I a bad friend?” How you answer reveals if you’re a bad friend, or not. So give a process answer. No sense digging a hole […]

OPB PEOPLE IN BEAVERTON’S RESER

OPB people gathered Thursday night for a radio show at The Reser in Beaverton. Maybe it’s the same crowd for every Live Wire show, but I don’t know. I’ve been to one other on Portland’s Eastside and both had one thing in common: Old people who know how to have a laugh.

DOING MORE? MORE WHAT?

‘Doing more’ is the vibe hanging over me, maybe you too. ‘Make your time count.’ ‘Give your all.’ ‘Don’t waste your energy.’

WEIRD PEOPLE? LIKE WHO

  Weird people you know invite you over for a backyard barbecue. That’s the scene. What could go wrong? They pull this out: Hearts and Gizzards. Let the grilling begin.

VERIFIABLE TRUTH MATTERS BECAUSE . . . ?

Verifiable truth came up the other day when I showed this picture. “It’s a halo.” “Yes it is.” “A miracle.” “Uh huh.” Or the reflection in a car window as I passed by. You need to keep a sharp eye out for those halos when they pop up.

EMPATHY FEELINGS? LET ‘EM OUT

The first time I wrote out ’empathy feelings’, spell check went to ’empty feelings.’ Empty feelings might be a better key word, just not the one I’m looking for. But I got an empty feeling scrolling through twitter, through yahoo news, and every other post was red hat related. Honest blogger that I am, it […]
