As I have provided advice in my blogs (take it or leave it, of course), it has been about the use of time (mortal/daily). I then spotlighted a particular season of life -- our infancy -- and we examined it to see what kind of wisdom we could take away from it as far as time use choices in our present lives. One thing that I brought forward is that in the present we need to spend time to honor, heal and/or build on the previous seasons of our lives. I want to note that all human being... Read More
