It’s certainly a crazy world we live in, with tremendous changes in the last half century.
There are:
· Strange political characters on both the national and international stages
· Threats of global terrorism and potential chemical, biological and nuclear warfare
· Financial pressures
· Pressure to keep up with rapidly advancing technology
· Changes in social norms
The way we think, talk and act towards each other changed dramatically over the years. Case in point: Back at the beginning of the American Civil War, prisoners were handled by a ‘parole’ system. Prisoners were allowed to go back to their own side – they just had to promise not to go back to fight against their captors.
Guess what, men back then kept their word.
Now days, there has be a legal written contract for even the simplest of deals, and people still try and figure out ways to break the deal. On top of that, government rules and regulations seem to make everything more complicated.
The only reliable constant in our lives is God, and hopefully our faith in God.
This blog will discuss various aspects of building faith, as well as the advantages of having faith. Using faith, we will work on developing a positive attitude towards life. We will also look at keeping a proper and positive perspective on life.
As in the Live, Love and Let Go book, medical and practical knowledge will be given which can be used in conjunction with our faith to develop a positive approach to the gamut of end of life issues, as well as other difficult areas of our lives.
