This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community, and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I

Well, essentially, the researchers read the students’ minds. More specifically, they monitored their P300 brain waves – brief electrical patterns in

The Misconception: Venting your anger is an effective way to reduce stress and prevent lashing out at friends and family.The Truth: Venting increases aggressive behavior over time.Let it out. Don’t hold it all in. Left inside you, the anger will fester and spread, grow like a tumor, boil up until you punch holes in the wall or slam your car door so hard the windows shatter.Those dark thoughts

Faith vs Terrorism

2010-07-19T16:07:00.004-04:00

We must learn to separate religious terrorism from the practice and promotion of a faith. The Terrorist attacks were an extremist act. Much worse albeit, but akin to the extremism of burning crosses, lynchings or the murders of The Army of God.Don't protest a Muslim community center in downtown New York just because it is represented by a faith. There are a couple of churches in downtown NY that

It's better to have a "can do" positive attitude than to admit you are sad and lonely.Okay, so everybody gets sad. And it isn't bad to be sad.

Psychologists call a genuine smile a Duchenne Smile after Guillaume-Benjamin-Amand Duchenne de Boulogne, whose place in history is derived by his passion for shocking people in the face.Duchenne lived in Paris and zapped people throughout the mid-1800s in an attempt to figure out whether or not the muscles of the face were connected to the soul. He defined and catalogued the eye muscles that are

Thoughts, emotions that fit all, have to be limited to a small number.

I had a dream last night I was in an attic with an old friend. We sat across from each other cross legged and there was a deep aching to embrace. But as one moved toward the other, the distance was maintained, our bodies levitating away from each other and neither of us could penetrate the space. There was a point or fulcrum between us that we both revolved around but couldn't move closer to. The

from Bertoldt Brecht’s “To those born later”; I came to the cities in a time of disorder When hunger ruled. I came among men in a time of uprising And I revolted with them. So the time passed away Which on earth was given me. I ate my food between massacres. The shadow of murder lay upon my sleep. And when I loved, I love with indifference. I looked upon nature with impatience.

I looked in the medicine cabinet and down the drain that was full of hair from my bath the night before. But it wasn't there. Everyday I miss it less.
