We've all heard the axiomatic phrase "Forgive and forget," but how many times should we forgive? Jesus said that we should forgive seventy times seven times in one day. This means that in a given day, we should have the capacity to forgive 3,430 times.

Our Legacy

How do you want to be remembered? I was asked this question about twelve years ago. That question brought me back to my adolescent years, when my father asked me, “What pathway in life will you choose? If you had two wishes, what would they be?” I answered my father by saying, “I want to be just like you; wise and happy.” As the years went by and my interest in helping people became the dominant force in my life, I found myself thinking about my legacy. What legacy will I leave behind for my children, grandchildren, and great- grand children?

Be Thankful

With the Thanksgiving season fast approaching, many of us will be giving thanks for all of the goodness we have in our lives. Some may have more to be thankful for than others, but all around we all have one thing in common to be thankful for; our life. My dad once told me that when a man has his life, he has the world in his hands. He was also known to say that everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die.

The Price of Peace

So many times we hear the phrase “I just want peace in my life.” Or how about “You give me peace of mind;” what is PEACE? Is peace a state of mind? Is it an emotional feeling? Or is it a natural part of every human being that can be activated with a thought or desire. Why does it seem as though some people live in a peaceful state of mind, while others seem lost and unhappy?

On Tuesday January 20, 2009 the United States of America had its inauguration of its forty-fourth president. This historical event touched people of all backgrounds, nationalities, races, and creeds. Rich and poor; Democrat, Republican and Independent; young, middle-aged, senior citizen, disabled, believers and non-believers; those who are doing just great, and those who are experiencing hard times all came together.


Within the last 20 years the term caregivers has become a frequently used terminology for a person caring for another person in a home setting. The term is typically identified by someone caring for their ailing family member, but there is another caregiver—one who cares for others as a career with no relations to their client.


One of the fastest growing fields of employment in the US today is home care services. Both medical and non-medical services can be provided at home for those who are suffering for age-related illnesses or recuperating from surgery or sickness. There are several types of services that can be provided to a person in their home:
  • Physician’s Visits
  • Dentist Visits
  • Nurses Visits
  • Therapist Visits
  • Caregiving Services
These are just a few of the services that individuals can receive while at home. These services usually are broken into two separate areas, Home Health Care Services and Home Care Services.

Living in integrity lets you sleep soundly at night. It is the inner knowledge that you are living according to the principles to which you ascribe, even when it is personally challenging. As a forty year veteran of the home health industry I've seen this term used as though it were a ribbon to be earned in a moment. Real integrity is not a fleeting thing. It isn't a moment in time. It's a series of actions that define you.

So much is being said about the Wall Street/Main Street bail out, yet there is a road much traveled by the elderly citizen of this country: Retirement Road. The young people of this country have time to make up for the money they lost on Wall Street. The wealthy and the rich have funds set aside to protect themselves regardless of the situation in the financial markets. Even the mature person, who only has another ten to twenty years before retirement, may still have time, and hopefully some luck on their side. The people hurting the most are the people currently in retirement.

Last weekend I went out and bought myself a beach cruiser. I was influenced to make this purchase by my 32-year daughter. She suggested that I go green by riding to the store (two miles) and riding to the farmer’s market (five miles); both of which are up-hill. Never being one to shy away from a challenge, I purchased the bike.
