		<title>Silent NO Longer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first time I saw it I was startled. The second time I was a unnerved yet mildly amused. However, the subsequent five billion times I&#8217;ve seen this Facebook ad, I have been gravely concerned.

Speechless. Yes, speechless momentarily.
Phew! THAT&#8217;S over. And now, WHAT IN THE HELL?
Are you a Mom? Are you making a piddling to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sleeping with the Diamonds On</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One year ago I knew my Beloved Grandma would die today. I recognized the signs. By evening, when everyone else had left for the day, I was dosing her with the appropriate medications hourly. I intended to do it all night if needed. It was not necessary.
I&#8217;m still second-guessing myself; I find so many things [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Year Ago Today</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A year ago today I was sitting with two hospice nurses in my Grandma&#8217;s bedroom. She was sitting on the edge of the hospital bed that had been delivered earlier (which the delivery man so kindly switched about with me AFTER the frame was put together so it faced the &#8220;right&#8221; direction). My mom was [...]]]></description>

		<title>International Day of Peace</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is the United Nation&#8217;s 27th Annual International Day of Peace.  I want to join the World in hoping for PEACE: Peace from War and despair, Peace from political bickering and strife, Peace from illness and suffering &#8211; perhaps even Peace of Mind.
I have always loved &#8220;A Gaelic Blessing&#8221; by John Rutter.  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>A World Without Cancer</title>

A wee bit ago (okay, last September), I asked you to support the LIVESTRONG™ Global Cancer Initiative. Now, with more urgency, I&#8217;d like to make the same request.  Please consider the following message from Lance Armstrong:

2004
2005
2006
2007

Evidently I was not careful last year.  I was not on the qui vive.  I didn&#8217;t keep my eyes open, peeled or out.  I was not on my guard, lookout or alert.  
Phhhhhht.

		<title>Being There</title>

A Chaplain from the Air Force came to tell her that her husband, Charles Shirley Lee, had been killed in a horrible plane crash at Promontory Point along with four other young men.  She did not remember that details [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A little Henrike update.  This is part of an email she sent me the other day.  I debated about splashing it on the world-wide web without permission and decided &#8211; HELL, YES!

Okay, this is getting ridiculous:
