How is Business?

Peter Drucker, a famous management consultant of the eighties and nineties, was famous for asking two successive questions. "What's is our main business?" - and - "How's business?" These simple questions can have powerful impact if seriously applied to almost any arena of our lives. They can help us focus on what we need to be doing.

The Joy of the Lord is My Strength

Does God have emotions? It seems clear that He does. Many different emotions are attributed to God in the Bible. When you picture/imagine God's face, what expression is on it? Is He angry, sad, somber or happy? Is He engaged, bored, or disinterested? What's His expression as He is looking at you?



It doesn't take long when contemplating God to realize that He is more than we can ever…

Boylston St Break In!

My neighbor across the hall, on the first floor, got broken into yesterday (Mon) evening between 5 and 9:45 pm.

I am scared myself because I thought window bars were keeping me safe, guess not.

If you heard or…

What is Your Reference Point?

Do you ever find yourself measuring yourself against some standard - internal or external? Sure you do; we all do it. We are almost always measuring ourselves. It seems to be part of human nature. The question is, "What is the reference point of your measurements?"



Most naturally, we measure all things according…

Park-ing Day this Friday! Make a park in a parking space...

I can't believe that JP isn't on this map.
I won't be able to create a park this year, but thought I'd pass it along in case any of you do. I'm going to take a bike ride up to Cambridge and Somerville to visit the parks that will be up there.

It's a day for turning metered parking spaces into parks!

Self-Pasta

Have you recently felt you deserved dinner, but your waiter passed you by? The first record of such feelings is in Gimelli 7. Capellini was downcast because his garlic bread was not accepted by His Noodley Appendage, as Cappellini thought it should be. He warned him to face his condition of self-pasta. He said, "Of His might and dominion, there is no compare; of His mercy and deliciousness, there is no equal. No other god can challenge Him; in the taste test, He is invincible." (Gimelli… Continue
