Time On Fire
For anyone who has ever needed inspiration, Time on Fire: My Comedy of Terrors by Evan Handler is a must read. But that is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to perhaps the most outstanding book that I have ever read. For those who have faced a major medical problem and have had to fight their way through a sea of medical professionals who were more interested in how your outcome reflects on them rather than on your life, you will relate to what this author had to endure in order to survive having been diagnosed with ...
Is Mother’s Day Sad for You?
It has been more than 7 years since my mom has passed away and each year, when Mother's Day comes around, I am reminded on this "holiday" about how it always bothered me that this day exists. Sure, I always did something special for my mother to celebrate on this day but never understood why I should do it other than I was expected to do so. My mom was so special to me and I was insulted by the fact that a day was created to recognized her when I did everything every day to let her know how ...
New from the Let Life Happen Network – In the News
Over the years, I have been very fortunate to receive masses of important information regarding just about every subject that you can imagine. The information is so good that I felt that I really needed to share it. Therefore, I have decided to create a new space on the Let Life Happen website where I can now share this information with those who wish to avail themselves of it at their own convenience. The new information can be viewed under the tab "In the News". Yesterday, I posted the first article on the site and did share it out through the ...
Are You a Nice Person
I don't think I know a single person who does not believe that they are nice. They go about their business on a daily basis giving compliments to others, telling others how happy they are to see them and letting them know that they are important in their lives. They inquire about other people's families, what is new in the individual's life and how great the other person looks. But, what happens when the other person does or says something that they do not like or interferes with that person's nice day in some way? How do they respond? Are ...
My Children Would Never Do Something Like That
If you have listened to the parents of the two young men who executed the bombings in Boston this week, you would have heard them repeat over and over that their sons could never have done something like that. They insist that the men have been framed despite all of the video evidence that shows them actually dropping one of the bombs and despite all of the mayhem that followed. The father indicated that his younger son is an "angel". The parents are saying these things because they view the United States as wanting to persecute their sons because they ...
