Bad Company

1148) When I was growing up, we lived for a time in a neighborhood that was filled with kids. I remember that all of us would get together regularly and do all kinds of things. These included bicycle races, ramp jumping, firecracker igniting, obstacle course running, football playing, and more. If these things seem innocent

I Can Justify Worrying

1147)   I can justify worrying. I tell myself it’s not really worrying, but planning. If I think of all the bad things that could happen, I can plan how I’ll respond, so I’ll be prepared. There are two unfortunate things about this reasoning. First, I cannot possibly think of all the things that could go

Getting Acquainted

1146)  Do first impressions really matter? I can see reasons why they do and reasons why they don’t. Regardless of where you stand on this question, it usually is in your best interest to make at least a positive impression when you meet others. Why? Because this impression can steer the conversation and potential relationship

Life and Puzzle Pieces

1145) I have a friend who loves to put together puzzles. She has done many of various difficulties, but one of them, only a 350-piece puzzle, was the most difficult for her because there was no picture on the box to go by. If she could see, at least once, what the picture was to

Mouth Guards

1144) When my students play soccer, they have to wear mouth guards. It’s interesting to watch them get used to putting them in before practice. They get to laughing as they try to speak to each other with them in because their words are muffled. Watching this, I wondered what it would be like if

Revenge Wears Many Faces

1143) They say revenge is sweet, but have you considered we’re all pretty good at getting even with others? If you’re like me, it’s easy to conclude, No! I don’t take revenge on others, but is this true? Have I ever used passive aggression with anyone? Passive aggression is getting back at someone through the

That’s Garbage

1141)  Growing up, garbage day was fascinating. My brothers and I would watch for the truck to come and, if we were lucky, we were outside to see our garbage move from the cans to this massive machine. We always hoped there was enough garbage there so the mechanism on the truck would move to

Time Limit

Because we live in a finite world, we must grow to understand that things around us have an end. Though we know this in our minds, when death visits, it often feels like a surprise. For example, if you have pets, you know you will most likely outlive them, but when that time comes, it

The Depth of Compassion

1139) Sometimes someone we love is going through difficult circumstances. These events may be physical, relational, spiritual, or emotional. It doesn’t matter if these result from something this person did or something someone did to them. Regardless of its origin, we often don’t know what to do. Should we talk with them and if so,

Evil is Interesting

1138)  There’s just something that is intriguing about evil and it surrounds us. Mass shootings and outrageous behaviors fill our newsfeeds. There are up-close documentaries about heinous crimes that become obsessions with people. Historic world events are filled with evil that people never tire of exploring. Why do people find evil so interesting? It’s somewhat
