Why do millions of people remember commercials of Ed McMahon always popping up at people's homes and knocking on their doors with surprise over-sized checks to winners...if he supposedly never did this even once for any company at all?! Do you remember seeing him on TV delivering prize checks? It is said that Ed never delivered giant checks to anyone, and that it's a false memory and example of the Mandela Effect. Now, I do understand that Ed never worked for Publisher's Clearing House Sweepstakes, but for their competitor, American Family Publishers. And, that American Family Publishers NEVER had commercials of Ed or of anyone delivering checks or prizes to anyone. So, why do so many people say they precisely remember seeing Ed McMahon doing so AND why is he referenced in so many TV shows, speeches, etc. of doing so too? For example: in the movie Erin Brockovich she answers the door and tells her daughter, "I hope this is Ed McMahon with a big check!" Also, there...

The Truth About Resilience, Reflection, Self Love, and Growth You’re never too old to learn life lessons, grow, or reinvent yourself, even if your confidence is shattered from past life trauma. You can learn from it or let it destroy your self esteem. Become who your past self meant for you to be and choose to focus on the lesson rather than just the pain, which allows you to grow. Rebuilding involves rediscovering your true identity beneath the trauma. New things and people come a long. But you got to rebuild yourself and find your true self you want to be. When you start doing good with that, you’ll live and forget the trauma, it won’t be fully but you’ll remember the lesson that the Lord up above put upon you. Things don’t work out sometimes because He above has something better for you in the future as long as you self love yourself for who you are. Life lessons learned become part of your strength, and the pain diminishes over time. 

I don't really have any thoughts this fine Monday afternoon. I just have the echo of the wise words of encouragement and advice of Katherine Stewart, a soul beloved to so many. Her beliefs, her philosophy, and her mantra were always summed up in two simple words; "Always Care". That philosophy was more than just a motto; the philosophy in those words were the road map with which she navigated her own life, and the inspiration she instilled in the minds and hearts of the countless people she inspired over the years. "Always Care" was just the way Katherine Stewart, or Katie Bug The Lady Bug, as she was so lovingly known to so many, rolled. And I can tell all of you personally, that the "Always Care" philosophy of life is still relevant and very powerful. I can tell you how many times her words helped me, God Bless You Always and Forever, Mrs. Katherine Stewart. Thank you for all the lives you molded, and the lives, like me, that those lives continue to ...
