At O’Hare yesterday, I almost puked cried watching this – the overwhelming number of people carrying around much more than they needed. All that extra luggage. Not Samsonite. Not gift bags…

No kidding. I get that. Seriously. There are no excuses that I’ll listen too. None. Sorry. Have a nice day.

Just following doctor’s orders?

blind spots
the writing is on the wall… or is it ourselves we see in the mirror… or not

Thirteen years ago a doctor prescribed diet and exercise to a 40 year old man with high cholesterol, including dangerously low HDL (the good cholesterol).

Why would we not comply with doctor’s orders? I mean, if our aging parents were given strict orders to follow, to keep themselves alive, wouldn’t we expect our parent(s) to comply?

Today’s story has another little twist – we’ve become the people our parent’s warned us about.
