Compromise, the way forward. Compromise, the path of peace. Compromise, the way to find, create, harmony. Compromise, the way to live happily with others. Give a little; take a little; compromise. In friendships, at work, at home, in marriage, in life. Be willing to... COMPROMISE.

Lyrics Post: “Human Touch”
I’m only a so-so Bruce fan. But this song...it feels full of truth and vulnerability...it feels...GOOD. "Human Touch" You and me we were the pretendersWe let it all slip awayIn the end what you don't surrenderWell the world just strips away Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangersAin't gonna find no miracles hereWell …
A Fine Line
Often a fine line, the gray area, in between. Therapy or Vice? How do you cope? Exercise, Eating, Substance Use, Gaming, on and on, you name it...anything that takes up your time, distracts you, helps you balance, provides comfort, or escape...or both. When is it ok? When is it too much? Which is it? Vice …

The Creative Spark
Decades in, the one big area of "life" I turn my focus to now, turned it to a while back, the Creative Spark. Maybe a luxury, having time and energy to pursue such endeavor, or is it rather, essential? Maybe not optional, but required, maybe that's what it is; certainly in my life now, that …
Church
Church. Haven't been in a while. Been with God pretty well every minute of every hour of every day, that's the flip side. Through the last year, the last fifty-four, leaning heavy on God's presence, the idea, the support, the release. Talk to God, it's a healing, freeing, release. Release from the bondage of worry, …
Sing Along
Enjoy the music? Sing along, the best way to feel it. I was in the kitchen with my younger daughter the other day, and she was quietly singing a song from the movie, Trolls. Can you guess which one? Yep, the same one I posted the lyrics for this week...”Get Back Up Again”... Such a …
Groove
Find it, it's a magical thing. Sometimes called The Zone, if you prefer. But I prefer the groove. Sitting in the rocker, feet up, evening time, lights low, music playing softly in the background. Jazz playing, older genre, World War II era maybe. Trying to find the groove, feeling it's there, but fleeting, difficult to …
Lyrics Post: “Get Back Up Again”
So good, this message. Sung to millions of millions upon millions more children. Through a fun, full-length feature film called "Trolls." Oh so SO GOOD. Simple message. Face the music. Do your best. Keep going. Fall down? Get back up again. "Get Back Up Again"(from "Trolls" soundtrack) I really hope I can do it'Cause they're …
Thought Box
The THOUGHT BOX. Not sure where this idea originated, but it's one I've used with the kids since they seemed open to it. I apply the concept to bad dreams, primarily...or at least that's where it started. Now I apply it even more liberally, to things they are scared of, worried about. Here’s how it …
