I love that story! So that really is possible! Aunt Sue

23.2.2024 20:02Comment on Saving American Democracy by tomsueruthIn person relationships are still very important to me and fellowship of believers in church rates high on my list of relationships. We definitely need one another to share our burdens and praises together. Aunt G
22.2.2024 13:54Comment on The Direction of the World by frankflysSometimes you might look around at the world today and wonder, where are we headed? The reality in which we find ourselves, and in which humanity has always lived, is governed by cycles. If we forget our past and do not learn from it, we are bound to repeat it. The trouble is that in […]
21.2.2024 21:26The Direction of the WorldPerhaps it’s an old song that your parents used to dance to. Or a homemade recipe that tastes just the same as it did years ago. Maybe it’s an old photo that reminds us of what we looked like back then, the clothes we wore, the cars we drove. Yes, the good ‘ol days, a […]
18.2.2024 02:07Nostalgia’s Role in Creating a Better FutureGreat ideas. Yes, happiness certainly is a choice and I choose to live each day as feeling very blessed. Thanks for the reminder to look on the bright side of life. Aunt G
18.2.2024 01:04Comment on Happiness is a Choice by frankflys“Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness”, says the Declaration of Independence. “Don’t worry, be happy”, sings Bobby McFerrin. Don’t we all just want to be happy? What’s keeping us from it? First it depends on how you define happiness. An ice cream cone, a birthday gift, a pay raise, a party. All of these […]
17.2.2024 21:38Happiness is a ChoiceAre you a concertgoer? Perhaps you’ve never been to an orchestra concert. As a cellist I may be a bit biased, but you really should try going once. And even if orchestra concerts aren’t your thing, perhaps you can visualize the analogy I’m presenting here. The ideal society should be organized like a symphony orchestra. […]
12.2.2024 15:13Society as an OrchestraWhen you look around at the world today it’s easy to feel discouraged. After all, so many things are going wrong and bad news is everywhere all the time. Not to mention personal struggles in your own life. But if you look at it another way, is there anything good about your life right now? […]
9.2.2024 16:40Gratitude Fosters HopeIt needs saving, that’s for sure. You’ve heard the news. Escalating aggression from communist and authoritarian forces poses threats to our democracy. So what are we to do about it? For what amounts to a very short period in human history (just under 250 years) The United States of America has been an unprecedented grand […]
9.2.2024 14:45Saving American DemocracyRemember when smartphones were new? Older devices and appliances were built to last, weren’t they? Over time manufacturers tend to cut corners to save cost because they know people will keep buying their products, whether or not they actually need or want them. If products can be made cheaper without caring about how long they […]
8.2.2024 17:45Planned Obsolescence and Environmental SustainabilityWhy are so many young people increasingly unhappy today? Studies show that mental health among children, adolescents, and young adults has been on the decline for years. According to the CDC, the suicide rate reached an all-time high in 2022. Two answers: the improper use of technology and societal instability. Technological change disrupting society is […]
8.2.2024 15:23Our Mental Health Crisis and The Loneliness EpidemicIn college I had an electronics professor who used to say, jokingly: “Transistors are like people. In the past there weren’t as many of them, but they were bigger, better. Nowadays we have a whole lot of them, but… they really aren’t that great.” For decades Moore’s Law has stated that the number of transistors […]
8.2.2024 14:13Trends in PeopleSince the dawn of humanity people have striven to push the envelope and extend the ladder of progress. But where are we headed? And what is the end goal, if there is one? We are social beings. We rely on shared information to survive and to thrive, not only in the present time but from […]
