Buddhism’s Four Noble Truths The First Noble Truth is called dukkha, which focuses on the main undertone of Buddhism, suffering. Although Buddha understands it is possible to enjoy things that there is an undertone of sadness beneath it all. Smokie Robinson has a couple of songs that explain the idea of having a good time while having sadness buried beneath the surface called “The Tracks of My Tears” and “The Tears of a Clown” where he sings about seeming fine in public but deep down he is sad. Hutson Smith used an example to explain the idea of dukkha as a shopping cart that does not steer properly because something is not working right. Buddha outlines six very specific times when this is prominent; the birth of trauma, in illness, in old age as your body falls apart, in fear of approaching death, being separated from what you love, and…
Mental health is a major component of our everyday lives. Despite knowing how important mental health is to us every day, I would minimize how much it affects us daily until it happened to me. Like many people, the idea is that oh just smile more, bad days won’t last, pray about it, or even some other approach to feeling better. Although many people believe beating mental health challenges are as easy to fix as tending to a small cut, there are many people who don’t believe the challenges exist at all. Again, I was the former who thought you could just easily process through these challenges and boy did my body make me a believer. I had a bout with PTSD from a bad car accident, which truthfully still plagues me when I am in situations like my car accident. I’ve even experienced depression. Yet, I battled with anxiety…
ParcelTrack This app is $2.99 (one time) and it will manage all your packages in one spot. When you pay for the premium. You can forward your emails to the app and it will automatically pull the tracking numbers out to track your packages. It will send you alerts and more. Great for this holiday time to ensure all of your packages arrive! I like this app for someone receiving packages, not for a seller who sends packages. Deskera had a great explanation of the app. Parceltrack is one of the more sophisticated tracking software out there. While most of the software is free to use, the premium version of the app offers some really good features. One such feature is that it allows the GPS based tracking of an individual delivery van through a GPS locator. It is an extra layer of security that the app provides. It also…
You absolutely need a pair of vans for winter. It is finally here, the time of year most of us dread, WINTER. It is no longer coming, it is here. Although I don’t get out much because of the pandemic there are some occasional times I leave the house in more than joggers and Crocs. I never struggle with deciding on shoes because of the weather, you know shoes are shoes as long as they compliment your outfit, right? Vans, the perfect winter shoe I was scrolling on Twitter as I normally do and saw a deal for some Vans at a good price right up under $40. The colorway was nice and it had fur around the top of the shoe, so I pulled the trigger and bought the shoe. Dope right? Just like Crocs made me a believer, these shoes have changed the game for winter drip. This…
This is my mother’s hot apple cider recipe, with my own spin on it. Here is another recipe that my mother makes every year. If you liked the Eggnog you will also like this recipe. his drink is usually made in a large batch and non-alcoholic. She typically makes this drink in a drink chafer (I think that is what it’s called). From my family to yours, enjoy! This recipe is a guestimation as my mother said she just guesses and makes this cider to taste. I implore you to take your time and find the taste and alcohol strength of your own desire.
We all have strengths and we all love those things about us. I want you to be proud of exactly who you are because you are the best at being you. Yet, in being the best at being ourselves we have to consider what comes with our strengths. If you knew you could leverage your strengths to be a better version of yourself, would you want the opportunity? I’m sure like me, you would. But, to that thought, we aren’t told much about what comes with the things that are our strengths. As many of us know most things come with highs and lows, even our strengths. In this blog, we will refer to the highs of our strengths as balconies and the lows of our strengths as basements. We have to recognize that our strengths have both a high and a low. Understanding this can help us better approach…
Every year my mother has a Christmas party, this drink is always on the menu. It is definitely a crowd pleaser. Granted her version is not spiked, this spiked version will be the talk of any holiday party! You can also make this recipe without alcohol as a fun and delicious family drink.
Hey there, plant lovers! Are you looking for a new addition to your indoor garden? Look no further than the ZZ plant! This hardy little guy is a must-have for anyone looking for an easy-to-care-for plant that still looks great in any space. So, what’s the deal with ZZ plants? Well, for starters, they’re native to eastern Africa, where they grow in some seriously tough conditions. That means they’re able to handle a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels, making them the perfect plant for busy folks who don’t have time to fuss over their greenery. Another great thing about ZZ plants is that they’re incredibly low maintenance. They don’t need a lot of water, and they can handle low-light conditions like a champ. In fact, too much water or too much sunlight can actually harm these little guys, so it’s best to keep them in a shady spot…
Hinduism has a quote that can teach you everything you need to know about world religions and God. I will post my thoughts on what I learned while reading a world religions book by Huston Smith called “The Illustrated World’s Religions: A Guide to Our Wisdom Traditions.” He did a fantastic job of giving readers a true perspective. This book was made to show the beauty in these different religions and explore their overarching themes. The book is not intended to compare the religions to each other, be bogged down with the dogma of the religion, or even to talk about the various groups within those religions. Smith helps you understand that this book has the purpose to translate the ideas and themes of each religion to the reader in a simple form. Smith quotes Schrodinger, “If you cannot – in the long run – tell everyone what you have…
