“Just say no” was a part of an anti-drug campaign in the 1980’s and early 1990’s. However, that is not how I am using this phrase. Instead, I am encouraging you to say no to a broader range of situations and people. How many times have you said yes to someone’s request for you to do…
It has now been 39 days since my surgery. I have been free of narcotics for 10 days and since the thoracentesis on the 12th, I have felt more and more like myself. As you might imagine, this means that my mind has turned to the future because I no longer must focus so intently…

I think that I have always known that life offers us opportunities to learn. I know that this belief became stronger as I studied psychology in college and graduate school. And I am certain that over the past 12 years, this belief has become even stronger and it has become apparent that the opportunities to…
I decided to do something new this week. I have felt some fear and trepidation, some frustration, and a lot of stress. In all of this, I think I lost track of the really important things. So this week, I began noting on Facebook (each morning) the things for which I was grateful. I wrote…
It’s easy to get caught up in daily minutiae. Laundry, grocery shopping, bills, traffic, and scores of other relatively insignificant issues and events. It is even easier to become preoccupied by health problems, potential heart surgeries, and minimally torn rotator cuffs. How many of these things will really matter in 10 years? How about in…
Yesterday we were getting ready to go to the lake for the first time this season. I had my bathing suit on and grabbed some shorts. They were too tight. Ugh! I grabbed another pair and I could not even pull them up. Same with another and another. The last pair I had left, finally…
