As I wrote about last spring Alli graduated from high school in May. As part of the baccalaureate ceremony everyone in the family was asked to write a letter to their son/daughter and then read the letter to them at the ceremony.

Sweet Revenge?
Last week I wrote about resentment and forgiveness (http://wp.me/p1QSbw-7B) – this is part 2 about revenge and forgiveness.

Guilty as Charged?
We all are harder on ourselves than anyone else – we don’t give ourselves a break. Maybe one of the most extreme cases I have heard about is the story of Donnie Moore. Twenty five years ago today the California Angels were 1 strike away from advancing to their first-ever World Series. Moore gave up an HR to Dave Henderson allowing the Boston Red Sox to come back and eventually win the game Read the rest of this entry »
