This project's goal is to give each family member and myself just 10 minutes of unconditional positive regard every day. All attention is focused on the other person for those 10 minutes and only positive comments or thoughts are allowed. Just 10 minutes often becomes much more. Try it and see. You'll find the Just 10 guidelines on the right side of this blog.

The Betrayal of Hope



On this Soothing Sunday, I struggle with the increasingly limited choices life offers.  Optimism fails me.   Hope fails me.    I know this is a temporary condition.  I've been to this bleak beach many times.  It is not a welcome site on a beautiful summer day. 

I want to feel hopeful, energetic, strong.  I don't feel any of those things. 

Instead of fighting this morass of negativity, I'm simply going to let it be.  I'll let it wash over me like an angry tide and watch it roll back into the ocean.  Tomorrow will be a better day.
