Having something to look forward to can benefit us in multiple ways.

There will of course be ups and downs, but focusing on the positive things and events can help us get through the not-so-positive things that happen along the way. Positive life events such as graduating from high school or college, getting married, having a baby, retirement, coffee with [...]

It’s actually a balancing act to keep our things proportionate to our living spaces. Our quality of life has many components. One of those components is about how we feel at any given moment.

This is not easy to do since our overall well-being relies on human touch. Even on those occasions that some have to leave their homes, we’re instructed to stay six feet away from others. At least we can see other people even though there is no physical contact. These measures are important to flatten the curve. Those most impacted are the elderly, probably the most vulnerable of our population. People are [...]
