Even my wife wants to know what I think. She's always asking ...Read the rest of this entry »

Now, here's a radical idea. As we see the body count pile up in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Africa, along with the daily occurrences of murder worldwide, including right here in the gun-toting USA, we ask ourselves, wouldn't it be wonderful if everybody would promise not to kill anybody for just one day?
Imagine, an entire 24-hours without a single person being killed by another person? One day and one night without having to see a tearful human being lamenting the murder of someone they love.

1. Food should not be wasted
We have learnt not to leave food even though we don't really
want it. If we cooked it, bought it, served it up on a plate or
ordered it in a restaurant it has to be eaten because "it's a
sin to throw away good food". So we use our bodies as a kind of
human waste disposal unit and pile unwanted pounds onto our
hips.
We learnt to clean our plates when we were kids, mostly from
well-meaning parents who wanted to make sure we got enough
nourishment and tried to make us ...Read the rest of this entry »

It's January 2, the day of reckoning. You glance at a
full-length mirror as you dress in the morning, and you don't
like what you see. Before Thanksgiving, you were on your way to

cheesecake, and glass of wine you indulged in over the holidays

Music is the key to the soul. It can lift you up and put a smile

radio. Another person may ...Read the rest of this entry »

The math is pretty simple. One pound of fat equals 3500
calories. Want to lose a pound a week? Then you need to consume
3500 calories less per week than you use. That's about 500
calories a day. By cutting out 500 calories a day from your
normal daily diet, while keeping your activity level the same,
you can lose approximately one pound a week. All right - that
doesn't sound like much, especially if you're more than 25
pounds overweight. Study after study has shown, though, that
those people ...Read the rest of this entry »
