Compassion, I don't think so!

The following article is by Albert Mohler and he discusses a law that is being introduced in California. I don't know about you but this is not what compassion is all about. Those liberals who believe this is the compassionate thing to do need to examine what compassion is really about. Those who were against abortion said this would be the next step. Those in favor said no way. Now we see our worst fears playing out. We cannot allow the left to railroad us into believing this is compassion. It is murder!!

For more on this my daughters blog talks about Terri Schiavo.

California Compassion Kills —Albert Mohler California is going to consider legalizing assisted suicide. State assembly members Petty Berg and Lloyd Levine--both Democrats--have sponsored what they call the "California Compassionate Choices Act," modeled after Oregon's infamous assisted suicide law.This is an ominous development, and the act's sponsors think they have a great deal of support. Assisted suicide is one of the main agenda items of the culture of death. The Oregon law was supposed to limit assisted suicide to the terminally ill and those suffering acute physical pain. We now know that those boundaries were crossed.The answer for suffering is pain management--not suicide. Doctors must not be transformed from healers to killers. Human dignity demands that life be considered sacred until natural death--not until an act of desperation.There is nothing truly compassionate about the "California Compassionate Choices Act." This law should be stopped in its tracks. Genuine compassion just doesn't kill. Albert Mohler is the host of The Albert Mohler Program. Read Albert Mohler's blog on Crosswalk.

Where Have I Been?

 The title of this article is apropos since I haven't blogged in almost 12 years. I plan to start this blog up again and try to blog on a consistent basis. I will also be broadening the topics that I write about. Be sure to subscribe so you can get notifications about when I post. So what have I been up to since that October day in 2013 when I made my last blog? Let me recap for you. When that post happened I was in the middle of my Toastmaster journey and I'm happy to say that I crossed the Toastmaster finish line by earning my DTM. I didn't continue in Toastmasters after that since I changed jobs and took my leadership skills to Mathnasium and started running a Mathnasium in Blaine MN in 2016. I got the opportunity to blend my education degree with my MBA and use it as the Director of the Mathnasium in Blaine. I also had the opportunity to be the director at one in St Louis Park and one in  Andover. I ran these until 2023 when I decided to go back into the classroom and t...

Team of Rivals

 Today I'm going to give you a book review. My favorite books to read are non-fiction books about baseball seasons, baseball players, presidents, or history. The book I'm currently reading and almost done with is "Team Of Rivals" by Doris Kearns Goodwin published in 2005. This book is 754 pages and I have 23 pages left so I think I can give you a good indication about the book. This book is really a retelling of the political career and presidency of Abraham Lincoln as told through extensive research into diaries and memoirs of those who worked closely with Lincoln. I have really enjoyed this book and the writing of Kearns. She is able to piece together all of her information about Lincoln's presidency and life during that time. She gives us up close narratives of the behind the scenes at the White House and his cabinet especially during the civil war. More often than not Presidents will give cabinet spots to friends. This book shows that Lincoln surrounded himsel...

The Audience

Any time you give a presentation it is not only the presentation that is important but the audience may be just as important. It is the audience that you are selling your idea to and presenting the information to as well. It is important to make sure you are meeting the needs of your audience. In that regard you need to understand the types of people that could make up your audience. We are looking at the concept of SOW and REAP. The SOW portion was the presentation itself and it included Substance, Ownership and WOW Factor. The REAP is the audience, starting Monday I will address what the R stands for. First lets look at the principle of sowing and reaping. The idea is that whatever you sow that you will also reap. If you plant corn you should reap corn. In our little scenario if you plant a quality presentation with great ideas you should be able to reap success. If you present a bland and boring presentation your will probably put your audience to sleep and your idea and present...
