Genetically Modified Food Crops vs Organic Foods

Posted by on · Leave a Comment

Is Industrial Food Dangerous? If there was a story told in which a person had developed rashes along with intensely itchy sores with strange fibers protruding from underneath their skin, what would be the suspected disease or sickness? Is it something new and rare? Is it something curable?

Morgellon’s Disease is the name of this sickness, and while there are only 1,200 people registered to be suffering from this disease, many more people out there are suffering from this same thing and have no idea what it is (Laibow, 2008). This disease is the result of industrialized food that has been genetically modified, or altered, that these people have consumed.

Industrialized foods are a problem because of genetic engineering and pesticides, and can be solved by choosing to consume organic food because of its nutritional value, and the methods that are used to grow it.

What People Don’t Tell You about Marriage

Posted by on · 3 Comments

From our childhood days and way into adulthood, a dream of perfect marital bliss is being planted into our minds. Even though we claim to be level-headed, modern individuals, fairytales and movies still make us wish for the one special person with whom we can spend our happily ever after. The problem is, all those romantic stories we hold up our own experiences to make marriage seem like it’s a lot easier than it really is.

It’s The Thought That Counts – Thoughtful Gift Giving

Posted by on · Leave a Comment

When giving gifts for any occasion, it’s the thought that counts. Being a thoughtful gift giver means we have taken the time to carefully think about the gift recipient’s personal interests, needs, wants, likes and dislikes, in order to find an appropriate gift to give from the heart.

Being thoughtful is defined by personal qualities like being kind, giving, considerate, attentive, appreciative, helpful, caring, loving, and giving mindful thought towards the comfort and good of others. Kids learn the thought counts very early in life, and teachers appreciate thoughtful gifts from schoolchildren, so why are thoughtful gifts given such a bad rap?

Toxic Relationships – Narcissism and its Deadly Effects

Posted by on · 17 Comments

 Thank you, Lin, for asking me to guest post on the topic of narcissism and its deadly effects. This is a subject that has come into its own. Lin’s awesome post, Toxic Relationships – Toxic Family Members has garnered almost 200 comments and 700+ Facebook “likes” since it was written three years ago.

Many more resources are available to folks who find themselves in a relationship with these insidious people than when my co-author, Lori Hoeck, and I first wrote The Narcissist: A User’s Guide a scant eighteen months ago. Since then, our User’s Guide e-book has been downloaded over a thousand times, and continues at a steady rate.
