VICTIM DEFAULT AND YOU’RE ALWAYS THE ONE?

Victim default: “There you go again.” Or: “When did passive-aggressive wake up?” My favorite: “That mood swing make you dizzy?” If you want a professional opinion who do you ask? A professional, of course.

EDUCATE, VALIDATE, FOLLOW THAT KNOWLEDGE

The work to educate people is an uphill climb. Nothing shows it better than the last year and a half. The corona virus has revealed an unexpected side of America. It’s the side where marginal public figures claim air time by saying whatever it takes to garner attention. But we’re way past that now? Not […]

LOVED ONES FOR A LIFETIME, AND MORE

Our loved ones leave a mark that doesn’t wash off. After reading about a family losing a son twenty years ago in the World Trade Center, a lifetime doesn’t seem long enough to spend together. From one stage of life to the next, parents stand as witness to their contribution to the human race. The […]

BREAKING DOWN THE STEPS FOR AN EMBRACEABLE FUTURE TO SNUGGLE

Breaking down anything to its basics is harder if you’ve never done it before. No matter how careful and cautious you are to include everything important, there’s always something missing. It’s like younger people breaking down the aging process. The only thing missing there is the age part, but that doesn’t stop anyone. I read […]

HEALTH ADVICE STARTS WITH TRUSTING THE SOURCE

When health advice comes from questionable characters, is it really advice to follow? It’s not health advice when it comes from people with agendas, people courting voters, or people seeking some kind of personal affirmation. If Reverend Bob decides Sunday is the day to go off on the congregation about covid masks, covid vaccines, and […]

CHECKING OUT THEN BEFORE CHECKING BACK IN NOW

Checking out, dropping out, call it what you will, but leave the back door open. Why the back door? Because you may want to check back in and avoid the scrutiny out front. The nice picture above was not taken at an Amish farm last week, or a pioneer homestead in the 1860’s. Nope, none […]

AGE APPROPRIATE FOR BOOMERS GROWING OLDER AND HEARING ABOUT IT

What is or isn’t age appropriate for boomers depends on who makes the call. And when. Because if it’s a matter of TIMING, a judgement on aging is just another opinion. Probably an expert opinion. One response to critiques at an inconvenient time is, “It’s time to shut up.” Since this is a polite blog […]

FATHER’S DAY FROM OLD DAD TO NEW DAD ALL TOGETHER

Father’s Day comes every year, but that first one is something else. A new dad on his day lays the groundwork of tradition for every Father’s Day for the next fifty years. Will it be like a birthday? Christmas? Or eventually just another day on the calendar? The easy answer: It depends on the kids. […]

CONTINUITY CONDITIONS: HOW ONE THING LEADS TO THE NEXT

Continuity conditions start with the first word. Continuity: uninterrupted connection, succession, or union. When you get on a roll and stay on it, that’s continuity. But what if the conditions for continuity aren’t right? They aren’t right in a relationship, a family, or work life? If that’s what you’ve got going on, it may not […]
