I recently heard of an anonymous study done on cell phone users across the country.  In the study they found that 50% of people never travel more than 3 miles from their house.  And add to that, the same people averaged only 5 places they traveled to throughout their week.  Pretty frikkin sad huh?  Get… 

I’m Depressed…Weed Brains

Probably not what you were thinking, but maybe…  I haven’t been able to weed the flower beds for about 3 weeks now and I found them completely overrun with weeds.  I don’t mean a “pull some dandelions business,” I mean more weeds per square inch than flowers.  Morning Glory, which aint so glorious are surrounding…

You know there’s a whole lot more to being honest with yourself than simply getting rid of fear, though that is a massive subject of its own.  Since we are on the thought, how about those other categories of our lives?  You know what I mean, right?  Those pesky little “hold-backs” that put roadblocks and… 

Be Honest with Yourself…

One of the great deceptions of the human race is that little thing called,” lying to yourself!”  You know how it goes.  You are afraid of something and then you make those bravado declarations like, “I’m not scared of anything!”   Yet on the inside, you know it aint true.  Now maybe you don’t want…

Personally I think the catch-all diagnoses of ADD and ADHD are over-rated.  Now hang on before you toss out your Ritalin!  Our modern-day theme for handling our issues seems to be based on being diagnosed with some condition, then being assigned to it entirely and then adding that you were born with it.  I mean after all I…
