I learned for myself that God is real, and it matters for our daily lives. It helps to know that this life (what we see) is not the end, nor the beginning. Honesty and the Golden Rule (treating others the way oneself would want to be tre

Some here have written helpful things about prioritizing. But to choose priorities, I think one needs to know one's purpose, in life. I arrange everything based on that, using a "pvsgeer" framework: purpose, vision, strateg

I don't worry about that, and I am (generally) at peace, despite things. Instead, we can have faith in God, who gives instructions and always keeps His promises, and they are good. More at my web site (no sales; from when I felt more

I think insulin will already be less expensive in 2024 anyway, due to efforts by a nonprofit manufacturer started by a nonprofit Utah healthcare chain with many partners. The manufacturer is trying to make many drugs more available and les
