December 31, 2023 16:41 - 50 minutes - 46.9 MB

As we prepare for 2024, we are all acutely aware that our world and nation is in a place that most of us have never known before.  Nations around the globe are at war.

Holidays are important in our lives.  It is a time of assessment, a time to look around us and realize all that we know and love and how much people mean to us. For some, it is a time of seriousness as we miss those that are no longer in our lives. We take stock of what is important and what we would like to change. Gratitude is one of the most powerful anecdotes to stress and fear. It is the expression of appreciation for what one has.  Not necessarily for what we “possess” but rather a re...

October 21, 2023 23:00 - 50 minutes - 46.7 MB

If you asked your child to name five life values that are important to them, would they be able to do it?  What about yourself?   As a parent, you don’t have to have all the answers, but there is nothing more insightful than an open discussion with your child about what they believe in.  Someone once told me that if you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything. As the world seems in historical turmoil about decency, atrocities, and justice, it is a great time for parents to h...

We are witnessing corruption in this country at the very highest level through the media.  Is it true?  How can anyone know? I remember an America where we could “be all we could be”.  That we are proud to take the high road, and if you committed a crime, there were consequences. How does ANYONE know what to believe? How do we teach our children that they have to obey MOST rules...

Everyday we make decisions.

Lately it seems like the world is centered on corporate and political campaigns that force values on the public that many find offensive and in several cases, and the public is fighting back by refusing to support their businesses.  There is also a trend where state and local governments simply announce that they are not going to enforce laws on the books that they don't agree with while at the same time passing laws that allow convicted felons to get out early and refusing to enforce laws t...
