Need a job? Be a builder. We are in dire need of builders. The kinds of people who build relationships. The kind of people who build strong families. The kinds of people who build bridges between groups with different worldviews. The kinds of people who build other people up. Become a builder and you’ll always be in demand.

Having talent is a great advantage. Yet, I’ve seen less talented folks who work hard and stay focused on the goal out play the talented people. Goals are reached, dreams become real through dedication, commitment, and believing they can be achieved if one works long and hard enough. Don’t ever count yourself out, dream, commit, focus, and work hard. Your dreams will come true.
Doctors are learning that one of the best ways to reduce inflammation lies not in the medicine cabinet, but in the refrigerator. By following an anti-inflammatory diet you can fight off inflammation for good. . . . One of the most powerful tools to combat inflammation comes not from the pharmacy, but from the grocery store. “Many experimental studies have shown that components of foods or beverages may have anti-inflammatory effects,” says Dr. Frank Hu, professor of nutrition and epidemiology in the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health.
Anti-inflammatory Foods
- Tomatoes
- Olive Oil
- Green leafy veggies like spinach, kale, and collards
- Nuts like walnuts and almonds
- Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna and sardines
- Fruits like strawberries, blueberries, cherries, and oranges

Spring teaches us lessons.. Spring won’t be rushed, Daily it unfolds its mysteries as leaves grow and flowers bloom, nothing is rushed. It moves at it’s own pace forcing us to wait patiently for its beauty to unfold. When we slow down our thinking becomes clearer, new ideas emerge, and a coherence forms around the tasks at hand. Take the foot off the pedal and slow it down.
When we are deeply loved, we discover a deep sense of self worth, security, and affirmation. When we offer our deep love in return we realize we have strength we never knew existed. Love heals, love strengthens, love brings two people together on a singular journey.Take a chance on love again and again.
