Comments Off on Genetic Selection Versus Genetic Surgery

At our house, we avoid GMO food by buying organic vegetables and other products marked as not containing GMO ingredients. We aren’t against GMO as a rule. However, the discussion over what GMO is has become so convoluted. After doing my own reading, I’ve come up with my own perception of what GMO is about. […]

Comments Off on The Essential Nature of Forgiveness

Forgiveness is a tricky art. There seem to be some who resist it with every self-righteous breath. There also seem to be others who embrace it out of guilt for feeling entitled to some restitution.

Comments Off on Coaching Yourself Through Setbacks
