You’re Doing Better Than Scranton, PA

“Things like that just don’t disappear.”  — Lackawana County Historical Socitey President, Mary Moran-Savakinus

Well, apparently things like that DO disappear.  You say you’ve lost the remote again?  Lost your car keys?  Lost your marbles?  Well, don’t be so down on yourself, or assume that you’re getting Alzheimer’s, because the odds are you’ll never loose anything as blatantly obvious as the town of Scranton, Pennsylvannia (which is the setting of the American version of The Office).

They’ve lost their sixteen foot high Abraham Lincoln Memorial.  And they’d really like it back, please.

Knowing When To Stop

After thirteen months of blogging for Where We Relax, I’m sorry to say that this is my last post. However, as regular readers of this blog will know, things have been going topsy-turvy in my life and I need to scale back on my work in order to get balanced again. This was a hard decision to make but in order to get more out of life, you do have to know when to let things go. I’m sure this blog’s administrator, John, has more writers lined up to keep Where We Relax going and help you manage your stress.

What Stress Won’t Do To You

There are a lot of urban myths and old wives’ tales about how stress directly affects the body. I’m guilty of thinking that stress will turn my hair white and even writing about it. But stress alone can’t turn your hair white or grey. Stress can aggravate some medical conditions, but it usually is not the main culprit for some maladies that we blame it for. So, if you think your stress will give you an ulcer or cancer or turn your hair white, you can relax.

Book Review: “Deep & Simple” By Bo Lozoff

If someone offers you this book, take it. It originally was distributed free to many prisons, so don’t be offended if someone offers it to you. I found mine in the “free books” bin at the local library. You don’t have to be a prisoner to find freedom in your thoughts with a little help from Deep & Simple: A Spiritual Path for Modern Times. Many of use can feel imprisoned due to debt, bad health or other hard to control circumstances.
