There is a fine line between dwelling in the past and reflecting on your past and sometimes it's hard to tell the difference. Since staying in the day is an important part of my life, I tend to focus on these Twenty-four hours and where I am today. What I often lose sight of is what actually got me here in the first place. I believe that things have a way of striking a chord with you when needed. If I've learned anything about identifying feelings it's that they are an indication of what is going on with me...consciously or subconsciously. For me, reading some thoughts and comments of people still in active Oxycontin addiction has really brought me back to where it al...

Well I was going to post something and thought that I would make a category named "personal". Ooh, a personal category. That's where I could put all the stories about my life. Wait a minute...isn't this whole site about my life? It's personal really. Wouldn't I therefore have to put everything I wrote under personal? I guess I'll skip that category. But this did bring up a nice reminder that I would like to share with you. Everything that I'm writing about on this site really is my life. I'm no fortune teller...we're just all in the same boat. When you are seeing a post talking about how to make yourself feel better...that's because I have been in the situation where I needed to learn how to make myself feel better. I write about it as...

Nancy Iannone It’s Sunday afternoon and you’ve picked up the phone to call your mom just like you have every week for years. She answers cheerfully, and you start through the familiar litany of neighborhood happenings, aches and pains and who was in the obituaries this week. Everything would seem like usual except for that little flutter of worry in your stomach. The last couple of conversations you’ve noticed that your mom is having trouble thinking of familiar words. Your mom tells you that she is playing cards with her friends at the senior center, but ...

Would you be able to recognize, say for example, a waitress that served you once five years ago? Or  someone at the checkout counter at the grocery store you visited while on holiday in, say, California a decade ago? If the answer is no, then you are like most of the population that sits in the middle of the face recognition spectrum. But if the answer is yes, then you are probably a ’super-recognizer’. It’s a term coined  by Harvard researchers  following a recent study they conducted on face recognition. They administered  standardized face recognition tests to a group of participants and discovered  that some people scored way above average on these tests. Of course, there are also, around 2% of the population,  tho...
