Family Dynamics

"What Are Your Family Communications Like?" Nina is an online friend of ours and she is quite familiar with our books, blogs... and my family history. With her knowledge of that early broken family life, she asks: "What are your family communications like today?" With a mix of various personalities preferring different modes of communication and our busy lifestyle - it can be a challenge to reach out to family members regularly. However Dave and I found a balance that works for us. I found it an interesting question to respond to since my siblings and I only met my Aunt a couple times and were all on our own before the age of 16 and we were born about 5 years apart I think. It wasn't until I was closer to 30 before we all started really putting some effort in reaching out. After my parents' took their lives around xmas, we all bonded over that and the family support was crazy amazing. Connection was strong for a few years, but faded out since then to a casua...

Business Terms 2

We have produced several videos to date helping to define business & marketing acronyms & how they might apply to both a single person with one book all the way to a small business with an office or retail establishment.  This new series continues with this by looking into: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) & ESG (Environment, Social, and Government) are similar terms used to describe the same concept. ESG is a term most often used by people involved with investors.  *  A bit of dyslexia showing there lol I accidentally said "CRS" instead of "CSR" a couple of times.

Poetry Time

This monthly blog post series celebrates the world of poetry, sharing one or two poems per post - featuring other guest poet's work, or our own. The poem  Years Go By  (below) was excerpted from the book  Rhythm & Rhyme , one of the books in our  Playing With Words  series available, of course, on  Amazon .  Reading one's own work can be an emotional experience. We might cringe or cry or smile and feel pride... all at once. lol There's one phrase I want to clarify from below - Self Sufficiency - by this I meant standing strong within myself, without a need for crutches or continue walking wounded through life.  Check out the From The Author section below the poem:) Years Go By Years go by,  And by, And by. As they pass, words written Glow with memories. Witness the five-year phases Where goals shift  From “survival” to “recovery”; From “amalgamation” to “lifestyle”… To “passion”, “bliss” and “legacy”. From “education” – to “job secur...

quote of the day

" An inexhaustible good nature   is one of the most precious gifts of heaven,  spreading itself like oil  over the troubled sea of thought,  and keeping the mind smooth  and equable  in the roughest weather.
