I was thinking of you….
Tuesday, March 25th, 2008One of the major issues that couples face is how they communicate what they want and what they need. Some do it quite well. Some do it quite poorly complete with mega-conflicts, and at times, ugly incidents. Others don’t do it at all. They choose to just work on the “you know” principle–that is my […]

Monday, February 11th, 2008You Cannot Have A Rainbow without A Storm
Friday, February 8th, 2008During the holiday season I was blessed to get a new book by Charles Grodin entitled If I only knew then… The gist of the book is that friends of Charles Grodin, actors, actresses, politicians etc. described a situation in which they made a mistake.

The Music Must Change
Friday, October 19th, 2007Imagine a radio station that plays the same song over and over–(I don’t mean the way FM radio is now where you hear the same songs over and over.) I mean 1 song repeating and repeating and repeating. Imagine that song being a steady diet of thoughts/feelings of guilt, shame, remorse and self-loathing(GSRSL). Imagine the […]

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007On Saturday Night after winning the Middleweight title, boxer Kelly Pavlik, in a post fight interview, was asked, “what were you thoughts after almost getting knocked out in round 2?’ He stated “sh*t it’s going to be a long night!!!!” We’ve all had days like this. In fact, after my own recent  fiasco’s with electricians, […]
