  • My Music

    Wednesday, April 2, 2008

    I'd like to talk a little bit about how music has affected my life. Music lets me escape my reality and enter a world where I am loved and the world is a beautiful place. I am taken away by my music and feel the love the person singing a love song must have felt while writing the song. I don't just hear music, I feel it, for me it is an emotional experience. Not just with certain songs bu...

Things are still confusing  when s...

He said he wants to see a ct scan of my pancreas and the last  ct scan done in June to check out. So I got a ct scan schedule on tuesday. He says we went 6 years with no cancer so we are looking for more time ...

    Hey All
    Well everything is going so so. Late Friday I was calling a friend and I got a feeling to call another I haven't talk to and she hadn't came to group for awhile so I call her and we talk for a long time. I can't say what we talk about but I can say God lead me to talk to her and help her and I did. Mom came up on Monday and she had a book about fasting so on Tuesday night after...

    Monday, July 21, 2008 – 6:50 P.M.
    My sister (Alice) and I had a very good session with my therapist (Dale) at the mental health clinic today.  I now believe that Alice understands how important it is for me to have close family ties. I am sure that both Alice and Dale realize that I am having a great deal of emotional pain because my brother (Lee) and I are no longer close to one an...

  • Hard times...regular folks are amazing

    Thursday, September 18, 2008 | A Positive story

    As I watch our stock market tumbling I find myself feeling cynical, how did these folks get us IN to this mess!  I then remember one of the the coolest coolest things about my job....THE PEOPLE...I get inspired all over again and I have to think we will all be ok.  When I do talks in schools or community groups I tell kids about the long haul medicine entails&nb...
