How are your evolving?

2021-08-05T00:58:10-04:00

Evolution not revolution I am a member of a generation that wanted to rebel against the establishment and then we became the establishment.  The Beatles got it and sang about us being a group that did not want to really rebel when they sang "Revolution" in the watershed year of 1968.  For those of [...]

Turning 65

2021-08-06T14:29:11-04:00

I have spent the last few years trying to convince myself that turning 65 was a non-event. It turns out that God has a tremendous sense of humor. A few weeks ago, I, like many other boomers turned sixty-five. They say that sixty-five is the new fifty, and while I still believe that, the [...]

Cancer

2021-08-06T14:47:38-04:00

Cancer - a word you do not want to hear from your doctor When my wife was diagnosed with cancer twenty months ago, we immediately began to research both conventional allopathic treatment and alternative options, along with how to prevent a recurrence. For her breast cancer, it was clear that conventional treatment was the [...]

New Rules are Needed for Work-Life Balance

2013-08-31T09:49:09-04:00

We are scales. Not the digitalized platform in which many of us fear. I mean the traditional, two-sided scale. It's common sense; when one side is more heavily weighted, the device is thrown off balance. We work the same way. Work-Life Balance is the key driver. From what I have learned from the last few [...]

Fresh Start

2013-08-10T07:35:50-04:00

At one point, living past the age of fifty was quite the feat. Fortunately, we’ve come a long way since then thanks to brainpower and technology. Otherwise, I might not be here, writing this blog. Now, longevity is en vogue. While living to 120 seems a long ways away, it is not an unfathomable goal. [...]

Who cares for the caregiver?

2013-08-03T07:00:56-04:00

"Til death do us part," are the words often proclaimed by newlyweds as they prepare to enter the world of married life. No one wants to think about the reality of that statement, but it's inevitable. At some point, we will be separated from our loved ones with one final breath. In spousal relationships, one [...]

How we shift

2013-08-01T07:00:20-04:00

Last week, I experienced a trip to North Carolina’s Outer Banks like no other. For the first time in twenty years, I vacationed with a leaderless family. It was a bittersweet feeling; much to my enjoyment, I was not in control, but my mother-in-law, undoubtedly the leader of my wife’s family, passed almost one year [...]

The Turn

2013-04-07T20:07:14-04:00

Six months ago today, I posted my last blog entry prior to this one and this one is different from most of my previous posts. This one is personal. I have not been in contact with you recently. The reason for that is that my wife, Melinda, was diagnosed with Breast Cancer last October.  As a [...]

Gratitude

2012-06-26T07:38:53-04:00

The saying goes that all things come in three's. Whether these occurrences are good or bad is a matter of perspective but we seem to notice the pattern more often in “bad-times.” A few days ago I learned that a former colleague's wife suddenly died at work last week. Next I heard that another former [...]
