attitude mind calm
Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
bad-day moments bad-life
No one really has a bad life. Not even a bad day. Just bad moments.
kids order ipads
It takes tough love to order kids to step away from the iPhone or iPad during dinner or to take the devices away if they're interrupting and interfering with everyone else's pleasure at a movie, concert or other public event.
attitude life-lesson answers
When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
baking generations labor
If baking is any labor at all, it's a labor of love. A love that gets passed from generation to generation.
attitude forgiving
Forgive everyone everything.
god-never-blinks cardinal-rules
No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
chocolate resistance god-never-blinks
When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
positive children book
It's scary to make major changes, but we usually have enough courage to take the next right step. One small step and then another. That's what it takes to raise a child, to get a degree, to write a book, to do whatever it is your heart desires.
summer running stars
Even if you have nothing in your wallet, nothing can keep you from having a great summer. You can listen to crickets sing you to sleep, trace the Big Dipper, breathe in the stars, run through a sprinkler, host a cartwheel contest in the front yard.
doubt next steps
When in doubt, take the next step.
dad gold alive
The only gift my dad ever bought me is still in my jewelry box. It died at 10 minutes to 11 decades ago, but the gold Caravelle watch keeps my dad alive. A watch isn't about keeping time. It's about stopping it.
elderly champion causes
While journalists cannot right every wrong, champion every cause or fix every problem, they can - through the written word - lift someone's burden for a day, make some elderly woman on a bus smile or let them know they are noticed by someone.
mean differences people
We want someone else to act. But miracles aren't what other people do. They're what each of us does. They're what happens when ordinary people take extraordinary action. To be a miracle doesn't mean you have to tackle problems across the globe. It means making a difference in your own living room, cubicle, neighborhood, community.
