Articles of Interest

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.  I am looking forward to catching up with you all over the next few days and hearing about your holiday.

Tonight I wanted to pass along some more articles that I think might appeal to you.  All of these are articles that are more personal or socially related.  How we treat ourselves, what we do to take care of ourselves, how we manage our feelings or stresses, and how we interact with others are all vitally important to our well being.

Often times we can get so wrapped up in our own lives and our own viewpoints that we can forget that others are experiencing difficulties as well.  Remember, we are often comparing our "behind the scenes" with their "highlight reel."  That is never going to be a fair comparison.  So, even though someone else's life may appear to be "easy" or "great" I encourage you to try to remember that nothing is as perfect as it seems.

I hope you enjoy checking out some of these articles.
