		<title>Think Before You Act&#8230;But Act!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
 
Think before you act.  Don&#8217;t be impulsive.  Consider the consequences.  All good advice for the rational human species.  Keeps us out of trouble most of the time.  Yet sometimes keeps us stuck in the realm of the mind.
 
Did you ever have an inspired thought of a random act of kindness, but then just think yourself [...]]]></description>

		<title>Taking Care of You</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
 
Too busy to take care of yourself?   Well, I&#8217;m just as neglectful as anyone else who has a family, job and other important responsibilities.  And the reward for putting everyone else&#8217;s needs before your own?  No, not martyrdom.  Not even a shiny medal.  Sometimes, not even a &#8220;thank you&#8221;.  The best way I can express [...]]]></description>

		<title>Parenting A Teen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I like my teen!  Crazy, isn&#8217;t it? After all, we all know that when we were teenagers, our topmost mission in life was to drive our parents insane.  And we felt totally justified because we were positive that they arose every morning deciding how to make our young lives more stressful than we already felt they [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;Tis the Season</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I like holidays.  I really do.  I even like birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, quinceñeras and the like.  What I do not like is gift-giving.
 
It&#8217;s not that I&#8217;m selfish or cheap.  I love to give&#8230;money, hugs, my time, food, my shoulder to lean on.  I&#8217;m just slightly unimaginative and terribly insecure when it comes to purchasing and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Life Without Cable</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
 
This is truly just a tidbit.  Just thought I&#8217;d let you all know that it is possible to survive and lead a normal lifestyle without cable TV (or satellite, or Direct TV, or 100+ channels).  My family and I do, and we don&#8217;t really feel deprived.
 
Now, you might urge me to join the 21st Century.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Matter of Honor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

 “Perhaps, the most important thing we can do is
honor whatever season we’re in and not fight it.”  
 
I love this follow up comment from my recent post Seasons Change.  Fellow blog writer Sara  really gave the fighter in me something to think about here. 
 
After reading Sara’s comment, it struck me that while honoring the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Seasons Change</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
 
Been wondering why no new posts lately?  Honestly, I&#8217;ve been wondering the same thing.  I ask myself: Why the lack of inspiration?  Where did all that great creative energy from the summer go?  Why the desire to just come home at night, put on my pajamas and vegetate?
 
But alas, all questions that are asked with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Right On Time</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

I&#8217;m 47 years young.  There.  I&#8217;ve just broken a really huge taboo and told everyone, everywhere my age.  So what?
 
Though it took me almost half a century, today I learned a really great lesson from a 24-year-old wise man.  Let&#8217;s call him Joe.  Joe led my meditation class and got me breathing, moving, twirling and vibrating [...]]]></description>

		<title>Friday Night Parenting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
 
Friday night at the high school football game.  Lights are shining.  Score board lit up.  Mascots dancing.  Players running, tackling, throwing, kicking.  Coaches pacing the sidelines.  Cheerleaders cheering (mine is the pretty one with the pom-poms and the pony tail). 
 
Does this bring back any fond memories for those of you who are already celebrating high [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spiritual Child&#8217;s Play</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
&#8220;Stay present: every second, every minute, and every hour. Every day of your life is full of present moments of infinite value. You won&#8217;t find God yesterday or tomorrow&#8211;your Source is always only here, now.&#8221;
