We got a corporate thief in the house! - 24 weeks ago

It's always amazing to me how some rich people, corporations, institutions stay rich. Some of them do it with their innovative ideas, good investments/strategies to make their money grow, great inheritances, etc. and some do it by strategically stealing other peoples ideas and making money off of it. For example, recently there was a woman in news that came up with a concept to create a bra t...

A perfectly, flawless relationship is like wishing on a star.

Today I read that a 10yr.old girl died of cancer and her dying wish was to see her father. However her father was in prison serving a five-year drug-related sentence.

There so many dynamics to this story that makes it so very sad. Although the dad was able to have a very brief (20minute) visit with her before she actually died as well as a few brief visits and permissions of pho...

This Marriage Thing! - 34 weeks ago

Many people view marriage as just a thing.Has the covenant and bond between a husband and wife, a man and woman been reduced to just a thing? The sanctity of marriage is not a thing, it's a beautiful union that endures life's tribulations and triumphs, bad times and good times, but most of all it (a good marriage) brings two people together that agree (people who also have the same mora...
