The Piano Farewell: My Wife's Passing is Now Complete yet the Music Lives On
By Larry Peterson
My wife, Marty, passed away this past March and, naturally, her piano remained behind. But it was part of her, an extension if you will, for no matter how much the Alzheimer's would erase her memory, every day she would still manage to play that piano. The last few months of her life she probably sat playing it two to three hours a day.

Rule-of-Life for the Wives
Rule-of-Life for the Wives
By Rose Cuervo
I am thinking of wives who have managed to get a lot of things done in the day by having a rule of life, that is a regular schedule which makes them optimal in their work and happy in their downtime. I know a wife who said that when she wakes up early and prays for a good while, she ultimately gets more done and stays more at peace the whole day.

Grace trumps each time
Grace trumps each time
By Rose Cuervo
There was a viral video going around where a teacher proclaims the virtue of hard work over intelligence and genius. There was of course more things above grit, which is overrated and potentially fraught with the pulling-oneself-up-by-one's-bootstraps self-reliance that would degenerate into pride and ultimately distancing from God and ingratitude of what He sends.

By Rose Cuervo

I have post partum depression. And that's ok.
I have post partum depression. And that's ok.
By Catherine Garrett
Three days ago I was diagnosed with post partum depression (PPD). I was prescribed medication because PPD is an actual medical diagnosis that requires treatment. Part of that treatment includes getting counseling. What I was completely unaware of, was just how long depression and anxiety were controlling my life, my words, and my actions.
