"Some great insights so far.
-When you or your child start to lose control a little bit and raise voices, say, "Let's start over," and say the same thing more respectfully again.
-Always apologize to your child when you have done something wrong.
-Have a 5-faceted review with your spouse each month where you talk about each child and how they are doing physically, mentally, socially, emotionally, and spiritually." — May 28, 2019 06:23AM

“I wondered how many people there were in the world who suffered, and continued to suffer, because they could not break out from their own web of shyness and reserve, and in their blindness and folly built up a great distorted wall in front of them that hid the truth.”

“Writer's Resolution
Enough's Enough! No more shall I
Pursue the Muse and scorch the pie
Or dream of Authoring a book
When I (unhappy soul) must cook;
Or burn the steak while I wool-gather,
And stir my spouse into a lather
Invoking words like "Darn!" and such
And others that are worse (Oh, much!)
Concerning culinary knack
Which I (HE says) completely lack.
I'll keep my mind upon my work;
I'll learn each boresome cooking quirk;
This day shall mark a new leaf's turning...
That smell! Oh Hell! The beans are burning!”
