Are You An Average Person?
Written by Glenn W. Turner
We are all basically alike in our desires and capacities. There is not too great a difference in our abilities. Because there is not much foundational difference in people, we could theoretically assume everyone should progress at the same rate of speed. However, in practice this is just not true.
In abilities -- we are alike;nin results -- we differ.
Some forge ahead, some maintain the status quo, and others drop out and stand on the curb of complacency to watch the Parade of Life go by.

Declutter Your Heart
We speak of decluttering our spaces--our homes, garages, offices--but how often do we think of decluttering ourselves?
