This is not a permanent eclipse, but a detour, a chance to navigate through the shadows and rediscover the radiant landscape beyond.

On a seemingly ordinary day in Erie, Pennsylvania, August 28, 2003, the tranquility was shattered by a heinous crime that would later be etched in the annals of criminal history. Brian Douglas Wells, a pizza delivery man, entered a PNC Bank not for routine business but to execute a robbery, a bomb strapped around his neck.

Why Accusatory Statements Are Poison in Your Relationships

Love’s language isn’t always Shakespearean sonnets. Sometimes, it’s the everyday murmurings, the whispered jokes, and the casual exchanges that weave the tapestry of a relationship. But nestled within these exchanges can lurk a silent assassin: the accusatory statement. These insidious phrases, dripping with blame and judgement, can puncture the trust balloon and leave scars long after the initial sting.

What’s It Like To Have Alzheimer’s?

This is an excellent question, and one I’ve considered often in the last decade-plus of working with such folks.

First, it depends upon the stage of dementia: mild, moderate, or severe.

In mild dementia, it seems to be like being a functional alcoholic’s day, as far as cognition goes. You’re able to do what you need to do, but some little things get missed, such as your T-shirt is on backward, but you don’t notice, or you can’t find the sugar bowl, so you start taking apart cupboards and end up going without coffee and the kitchen is a mess. Later, you swear you did not do that. You have no memory of doing it, and the more another person argues that you did indeed make that mess, the angrier you get. You did not. He or she is lying.

Judith at the Gates of Bethulia

Standing before “Judith at the Gates of Bethulia,” one doesn’t simply appreciate a painting; one confronts a visceral tableau. Artist Jules-Claude Ziegler’s 1847 masterpiece plunges us into the aftermath of Judith’s audacious act, the air thick with victory and horror. Judith emerges from the Assyrian camp, clutching a severed head – not just any head, but that of the fearsome general Holofernes, Bethulia’s tormentor.
