Though human nature seeks happiness and tries to get rid of sorrows during its worldly existence, it is not drawn to seek permanent bliss and freedom from sorrows for all time.

The ups and downs of life can themselves become an exercise in spiritual effort when we learn to abide in God’s protection and seek His...

A requisite for building a lasting relationship is ‘customer care’,...

We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems,...

Being a parent can actually teach you how to be a better professional. You have to learn to leave your frustrations behind. Very often, women end up carrying their domestic traumas to the work place. This can become a major problem for others in the office. Children do not have goals, they have tasks. Parents have goals for their kids. To the child, grades do not matter and completing class...

Great improvements in medicine, science and technology have enabled today’s older Americans to live longer and healthier- lives than any previous generation. Yet many Americans fail to make the connection between undertaking healthy behaviors today and the impact of these choices later in life. Research has established that there are distinct advantages to physical exercise, both aerobic and...

“GOOD MORNING…AND GOOD DAY…”
VALUABLE VIEWPOINT
Children engage their imagination more willingly than adults when listening to stories. When an adult engages his or her imagination while telling a story, it benefits the teller as much as the audience. How many of us have fallen asleep in class under the deadening drone of a teacher hammering out information on dates, kings, mass and velocity. I think it deadened the teacher just as much as it...
