Kate Smith introduces God Bless America
The song that swept the country during the second world war. It was such a popular song that Woody Guthrie wrote a song to combat it, he was so sick of hearing it. From my new book, out in about two months," Enchantment" , how and why my generation became some of the greatest patriots ....we had the tears in our hearts and souls for the boys who went to war, and can never forget that time.

Vacationing for about 10 days
Took a trip along the St Lawrence Seaway, it was a nice trip, not alot of traffic, beautiful scenery, especially when we got down to Rt 20 alternate and headed west through farm country to Derby, New York. I started reading again, finally, writing is taking up so much time, that my reading had slackened off, I finished Eat, Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert easy reading, and now The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson, (complicated by unfamiliar names), but a plot that is so intricate you can't wait to turn the page and find out what the 'heck' is going on. Love it and looking forward to finishing it this week.
Then, I will publish my second book called, Enchanted, A memoire of growing up in the 1940's and 1950's . How in the world did our parents keep us in a state of childhood enchantment while a war raged around us for 4 plus years til most of the world was on fire! I am scared and excited, because I think, who am I to write ? But on the other hand why not, I have a story to tell, and maybe some of you will like my story telling.

Your mind can keep you well
Your mind can keep you well This is an interesting article. I have read many reports and studies of this. I have used radical prayer myself. What harm does it do to pray? Also, I have always believed that reading is a big help, especially for personal problems, finding out how others have survived cruel events in their lives, is sometimes just enough medicine to help one overcome what seems insurmountable.
The battle is not always what you see on the surface, such as disease, but , it is how you deal with it. Some famous well respected people overcame alchoholism, to reach fame and fortune, while others can not seem to crawl out of the hole they dug themselves into. The why of the question is always there, how can we help others to find their own way is probably the most perplexing question in life, and always on my mind, I guess it makes one a positive thinker to think that there has to be a way to help others find their way through severe life problems. I prefer to remain positive, how about you?

Be My Love - Mario Lanza
You may not remember Mario Lanza, he had a wonderful voice, and mother or grandmother probably played his records all the time.
It might be time to own one of his albums for your own grandchildren some day.
