Man and Woman created

When the topic of relationship is brought up, most people can admit that nothing is as it seems until time has been invested, and for many that can be too late. Too late to spare one's feelings, get back time or see how we blew past red flags in the beginning. It wasn't until I …

News distances neighbors

Judge others if you must, but the real threat is against your neighbor because of fear-based control which will erupt anger at others who you deem as jeopardizing your health.

Chronic ANYTHING causes cyclic chaos

I at least have a brain cell and won't succumb to the average, normal, status quo way of indulging an escape from relational, emotional and physical pain.  If I have come this far in life and endured the creaking of arthritic joints, pain in my vagina, over-firing of nerves in my legs, debilitation of muscle …

  I remember when my depression accompanied my physical pain; it made it all the harder to endure.  Often the mental anguish would take over and for years I would open my eyes in the morning to a cloud of impending doom hovering over me.  Now being on the other side of depression, I can …
