Who Says?

1158) “I’m telling!” “You’re not my boss!” “Who says?” These are statements kids have made to their siblings or friends throughout the decades. They include warnings, claims of superiority and questions of authority. Of these three, let’s focus on the last one. Desiring to know “who says” or on whose authority are things demanded is

Peace Time

1157) “Leave me in peace.” “Let me speak my peace.” “I’ll do it to keep the peace.” Here are just a few phrases associated with peace we hear regularly. Peace is a sought-after state of being. There is one major error many make concerning it, and it is that this thing called peace depends on

Are You or Aren’t You?

1156)  In my language arts classroom, I assign spelling words each week. The routine is on Mondays, the kids get a scrap piece of paper and I call out the new words, one at a time. They write them down as they think they are spelled. After this, I go through each word, spelling them

Even Though

1155) Even though: I am selfish and a terrible listener. I am impatient and unlvoing I am greedy, lazy and prideful. I am unkind and vengeful. I am self-seeking and untrustworthy. I am dishonest and minipulative I am spiteful and easily angered. I look out more for my own needs, rather than others’. I am

It’s All About Winning?

1154) Some of us only measure ourselves as valuable based on our victories over the competition. These victories may be as simple as over a checkers game. The idea is, I can only be good and important if I am number one in any or all areas of life. There are multiple reasons this is

Under the Influence

1153) When you walk into a room of people, what sort of “energy” do you produce? Is there a collective feeling of positive reactions or doom? I often tell my students they need to choose their friends wisely, but adults need to choose wisely, too. Others’ attitudes rub off on us. If we are around

Cardiac Care

1152) If someone today claims they didn’t know fatty foods and inactivity are bad for the heart, they’re either lying to themselves or in denial. All over our food labels, and commercials found on television or online, you can find information about how to treat your heart better. Isn’t it interesting, though, that you find

Why Don’t You Answer Me?

1151) Have you ever asked someone for something and they don’t even acknowledge that they heard you, much less seek to do it for you? I have, and it feels like I am being ignored. Because of these feelings, I sometimes transfer it to God when I am speaking with him. When I’m pouring out

Word Power

1150) As a writer, I spend hours poring over the words I have typed on my computer screen. I will adjust sentence structure, make sure what I wrote makes sense and examine my word choices. If only I would spend the same amount of time working over the words I speak before I say them!

Anger Examined

1149)  Many people consider anger a “safe” emotion. It seems to be easier to let people see this in us than many other emotions. When I’ve considered anger and done some reading on it, I have found many in the psychology field believe it to be a “cover” for more vulnerable feelings, such as the
