This article might cause some to “bristle” and others to “scorn”. I have for a long time maintained that there is a difference between being dependent on medications and being addicted to them. However, in looking up the word “dependence”, I noticed that one of the synonyms listed is “addicted”. Well, that caused me toContinue reading “Dependence or Addiction: The Controversy Over Medications”

Happy Valentine’s Day
We have once again reached that day where people all over the world pay tribute to their “other half”. It is also a day that might trigger utter loneliness for those that are still alone for whatever reason. However, this is for all the people who have found their soul mate and celebrate having suchContinue reading “Happy Valentine’s Day”
Looking Beneath the Anger – “Shadow Boxing”, Part 2
This article will be a bit shorter than “Shadow Boxing – With A TKO” – hopefully – but with me, you never know! This is an addendum to the first “Shadow Boxing” article as I realized I left out a very important point – or three! I just wrote about the anger and the rageContinue reading “Looking Beneath the Anger – “Shadow Boxing”, Part 2″
Shadow Boxing – With A TKO?!?
O.K. Some might look at that title and think I’ve gone off my rocker – again. But, no, I’m still kicking around in reality – sort of. How can you have a TKO (“Total Knock Out” is a boxing term for those that don’t know what the initials stand for) when this “shadow boxing” thatContinue reading “Shadow Boxing – With A TKO?!?”
We’re Not All The Same – or Are we?
I’ve been debating with myself all week on wether to write about this or not (yes, I debate with myself – sometimes the debates get r-e-e-a-l-l-y vocal!). There is so much to say on individuality and uniqueness I could go on for literally HOURS! But I’ll spare you the pain of a novel today insteadContinue reading “We’re Not All The Same – or Are we?”
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
This is a new day in a new year, and I’m sure that everyone out there hopes it will be a whole site better than this past year. We are still battling a once-in-a-century pandemic that has taken its toll on every living person. Yeah, saying “every living person” may be presumptuous, but unless you’veContinue reading “HAPPY NEW YEAR!”
Merry Christmas
Today is Christmas Day and for most, this is a very different Christmas than we’re used to. But that doesn’t mean we can’t still celebrate. For those of you who do celebrate Christmas and also celebrate the reason for Christmas, it doesn’t matter that you can’t have huge family get-togethers. Or ANY get-togethers for thatContinue reading “Merry Christmas”
Christmas 2020
Hello everyone and Merry Christmas. We are now just a few days away from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Albeit this year will be a far cry from other Christmas seasons we have seen. I must tell you that I just deleted an entire post that I was working on. I was trying to makeContinue reading “Christmas 2020”
Broken Trust
Have you ever trusted someone who has let you down and/or hurt you? If you are a member of the human race, the answer will most likely be in the affirmative. If the answer is no, then you are a rarity among us mere mortals. This is not something we like to think about, letContinue reading “Broken Trust”
The U.S. Election
Today is the Presidential election between Republican President Donald Trump and Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden. Whether you live in the States or not, you can’t help but be impacted by the goings on of this country. Or, if not impacted, then definitely intrigued. I may live in Canada, but I have been tuning inContinue reading “The U.S. Election”
