Winds of Change
Winds of Change Time changes everything, and we need to be able to re-evaluate our own lives and the direction we are headed in. It doesn’t matter if the direction is one we have selected for ourselves, or one where life itself has lead us there unaware. Sometimes those things that we thought mattered most, are not important any longer. Rather, things that we overlooked or have forgotten from the past come closer to our new reality. Change is an emotional experience that reminds us that nothing is permanent. It teaches us to prioritize those things that are really important. Change can mean loss, but it can also mean gaining…

Public Health Eating Disaster
Are You A Public Health Eating Disaster Just how far have our appetites taken us, and what happens in the event of an unforeseen major disaster? Is sugar in the details? Are “we” the disaster?

What battles should we fight
Dedicated to my class who asked the question"what battles should we fight, and can we bring duck tape?" We have all been there. That place and time when the information we are hearing is just too good. Emphasis on "too good". Red hot sizzling information that can make or break a situation, a person's reputation, or put honestly - damage our own social integrity. By your own social integrity that refers to you or someone in your circle that has no filter on what they think, and tend to blurt out every little tiny detail that they know for the whole world to hear. As innocent as the act might seem to some, in fact it…
