3 of 81

LOSING DAIZYI am not sure where the notion came from to adopt a Greyhound, it must have been a gentle nudging from God.

Losing my father to a heart attack was my first experience with the death of someone close. Later I would remember telling others that I understood their pain in the death of a family member. I didn't. Until it happens to you, you don't know that the waves of sorrow grip your guts and you fear that you might not be able to br... More..

I work in the Health Food/Supplement Industry. As a result, I have had access to many articles on a myriad of subjects. I want to bring attention to soy in this article.

Maxwell was a one-of-a kind Yorkie mix weighing in at 25 pounds. He had ears that stood up giving him a quizzical look most of the time. He moved to Florida with me and eventually back to Colorado. Max and I adopted Murphy, a red miniature Dachshund. They played hard together and had great lives. Max had a heart murmur and la... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Religious Speculations & Criticisms The power of prayer

The power of prayer is an amazing route to the heart of God. It is a way of connecting with Him and sharing your thoughts and dreams. Prayer is like sitting on your father's knee and being able to say whatever you need to. God isn't afraid to hear the truth. He already knows how we think and what is in our hearts but He wants...

The more we allow the government to 'manufacture' our food, the sicker we will get. People making decisions about what is and isn't okay for us to ingest don't seem to be on our side. Don't they eat the foods they are approving? I am specifically concerned about soy. It is a cheap additive and being used in many foods and sup... More..
