Why are we so lax in giving out compliments? I think we often have good inclinations but don’t act on them.

A disclaimer: yes, there are legitimate concerns that cause us to take rational precautions, but that’s different from true fear.

Fryling and others have written that we can learn to view growing old as a gift from God. Logically, if you are a senior citizen and you’re still here (and you are or you wouldn’t be reading my column) then it is God’s will for you to experience old age.
