I’m hearing from people locally, throughout the country, as well as abroad. They are feeling everything from disgust to sincere fear. This writing is not to affect your vote for one particular candidate. It [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[We all have our unique ways of expressing ourselves. We can also make ourselves pretty miserable trying to get others to express themselves the same way. Ashleigh Brilliant once wrote that “I need a map of your mind to avoid the most dangerous areas.” Wouldn’t that be helpful!

There’s a lot, however, to be said for ritual. First, we ALL have rituals in our life, whether we see them that way or not. Monday [&#8230;]]]></description>

In spite of the various controversies surrounding these Games, it’s hard not to be impressed with the dedication of the individual athletes.

We think we’re on the same wavelength and suddenly realize this isn’t true at all.

					<description><![CDATA[Ever ask yourself that question? Perhaps you’ve tried relationship after relationship, but nothing seems to have any longevity. Maybe you’ve tried for years to please a relative or mate without success. You may have some examples of your own. It can seem so hopeless, so frustrating. Why bother? Why bother, indeed! I’ll tell you why. [&#8230;]]]></description>

In fact, it’s the small stuff that can actually be a life saver for us. In Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s, A Study in [&#8230;]]]></description>

It might make you sad because the opinions of others can feel so undeserved and wrong. Yet, we all judge.
