- Can The Government Really Label You Disabled?
It seemed like only yesterday that I was living in Washington, D.C., working in corporate America, waking up at 6 am, rushing with my coffee while I brushed my teeth and put on my pinstripe suit and yellow power tie, and drove to work, arriving before rush hour. Only to be stressed out the rest of the day and night. - Downsized? 7 Steps Of Internet Success Paying Nobody Else
You worked hard for your money for a decade or two. Maybe three. Suddenly your company downsized, or you were fired, or your health declined. In any case, you found yourself no longer employed, yet still have the same bills. Aside from your ego reduced to the size of a molecule, you feel confused, bitter, and sometimes hopeless. - Eco-Friendly Business: Psychic & Financial Rewards
Starting up "eco-friendly" one, as it is often called, is not always a cakewalk, in spite of the majority of our society's support. I felt it would be an easy challenge for me, seeing that I had launched one of Mississippi's first health food stores. There was no Internet, no Google, no blogging, nothing. I paid high rent in a mall across from the local university. The local townsfolk felt I might be possessed to believe that natural products might be better than what could be found from their neighbhood grocer. - Eco-Friendly Retailers Now More Mainstream Than Non-Greenies
As I predicted in an article several years ago, retailers, including the big guys, have gone eco-friendly. I saw it coming. I wrote about it. And, of course, it is a welcome change.

It's a very good sign. - Environmental Awareness Is Mainstream
In the early 1970's, while living in rural Mississippi, I remember hearing my mother speak of a woman who had had incurable cancer, given chemotherapy, and sent home to die by her oncologist. She allegedly took an herb for several years and the cancer went into remission. Of course, I was skeptical, until I met the woman, then in her seventies, and appeared a picture of health. This started my quest at the nearby library, which did not offer much, to read about a more natural way of living. - Make Laughter A Stable In Your Life

Since that was a few years before my time (but unfortunately not too many years before my time), I will have to take archaeologists word for this phenomena. I remember loving to laugh as a child. My mom was the "sense of humor proprietor" of our home, and making her laugh, was especially fun, as she was a tough audience. Especially when I was being grounded for something I'd done wrong, which was most of the time. - Want To Be An Internet Mogul? 7 Non-Easy Steps That Work
Suddenly you are unemployed. Maybe you worked hard for your money forever it seemed. Possibly your company downsized, or you were fired, or your health declined. In any case, you found yourself at home watching cable news, yet still receiving the same bills reflecting your previous lifestyle. Aside from the obvious ego-blow, you feel confused, sad, and overwhelmed. - When Old Hippies Go Green
Suddenly becoming earth-friendly at middle age can frighten those around us. Especially those who think it is "just some trend. I've tried before. I began recycling many years ago, and other than taking organic vitamins and trying my best to eat natural foods both of which I still do.
