I just heard this on the news just now...the passing of yet another icon, Soupy Sales. Now many folks might not even know who the heck Soupy Sales was, but for us baby boomers growing up during the 1960s very few of us didn't...

KatieDidit Thats so cool you got to meet him. I haven't seen or thought about him in years, yet knowing now that he's gone, I am going to miss him. I used to love watching him as a kid. He was so funny!

Do you like thunder storms? Are you afraid of bad weather? What you feel in a strong storm time? Life's storms are not different from the physical storms. There is no need to be afraid. There is always a rainbow after...

KatieDidit I love storms. I don't like loosing the electricity though. I would disagree though that life storms aren't different from physical storms or weather storms. I can enjoy the awesome display of a thunder storm, the sounds, the light show, the feel of the...

KatieDidit I wish it was insight that taught me that, and that I'd learned it a long time ago. But, other people have great ideas and this is one of those things it's never too late to learn.

If I can choose one war movie that I like the most, I would loved to say "Braveheart". I've seen this movies countless of times already since it was shown in the 90's. I've seen it three times in a movie theater alone. Other war...

KatieDidit All of the movies listed so far are good and really worth seeing. I think my all time favorite though is "The Fighting Sullivans" It's a WWII story of 5 brothers who joined the Navy and insisted that they serve on the same ship. They all went down with the...

KatieDidit While many just now are becoming aware of it because of this flu pandemic, this is really nothing new. Triage is a very old medical practice. It happens every day in every hospital. Under ordinary circumstances triage means the worst most life threatening...

You like to drink coffee in our own way. Some like it black with no cream don't. Some like it sweet while others are sugar-free. Many like it steaming hot, while some others like it slightly hot. How about you, how do you like...

KatieDidit I like mine black, but I do like different flavored coffee blends. Right now I'm drinking a hazelnut coffee. Occasionally, but still very seldom I'll add a flavored creamer like Irish Cream or Vanilla Cream just for something different.

KatieDidit If I had it to do over again, I'd teach them to live in the moment rather than for the moment. We out of so much in our lives because the mind is either replaying the past, or planning for the future even if it's just 5 minute from now, that we miss the good...

I feel very tightened in the brain to say a blunt No for a thing which I don't want to commit . I try to make out why it is so difficult to say a No . Is it in the nerves to stop us from being negative in our response?

KatieDidit Try this phrase....."I'll think about it." You haven't committed to doing anything other than thinking about it and it gives you some time and space. Maybe you'll decide it's something you really do want to do after all but you're immediate silent reaction was...

I had read the story of Moses when I was a child. I don't remember what happens at the end. Do they reach the promised land? Do they live happily ever after? If its a long story you could give me a link.

KatieDidit No. Moses was not allowed to cross into the promised land because he had disobeyed God. He climbed Mt Nebo from which he could see the promised land but could not go into it. Numbers Chapter 20 tells why. Deuteronomy Chapter 34 describes his...
