What would happen if you didn’t own a cellphone, television or computer? How would that impact your life?
There are many in this world who can barely afford food let alone technology, but that’s hard to imagine in this tech-attached world. Think back to when you were a kid (if you are old enough.) Do you [...]

You don’t need to go far from your home to have adventures of many kinds. Most communities have a food scene, an art scene and an outdoors scene, no matter how small. The quaint little shops in downtown squares are inviting to the eyes, as the rolling hills and mountains or grassy flatlands entice the [...]

You see them on every box of food you pick up, especially if your diet and lifestyle requires it.

February has become a brutal month for winter weather across the States, and I bet it is the same in other countries.
