Published on Leave a comment on Local Churches are a Constantine Set Up – NOT what JESUS Called Us to – Warm and Courteous, Inviting and Family Orientated in Homes!

By Janet Vargas - Inspirational Writer and People's Advocate

Do You Still Wish to Stay in That Local Church System OR Are you Awake To It
and Not Sure of What to Do?

Let’s be completely honest with each other. It is incredibly easy to look at the rigid, impersonal landscape of Modern Churchianity and feel entirely out of place. Whether you have spent decades warming a seat or have never stepped inside a Church Building because the whole scene strikes you as a bit strange, your instincts are actually spot on. Especially with Mega Churches. In the USA they even have ATMs in their Foyer - such a Mercenary Enterprise, and Local Churches often have Fancy Renovations at the people's Expense.

Making a few things Clear. This may offend some but it will Help a whole lot more who have not had a decent Answer to a Negative experience or who are Concerned about what they have Witnessed and are Genuinely disturbed. Churches represent so much of that which is Impersonal these days. OK?

While I am happy for Individuals like a Lovely person I met recently whose experience has been more pleasant, I am concerned about Hearts and Lives
more-so than those who wish to "take offense"
so much has been unaccounted for, and that isn't good.…

Look into a Modern Suburban Living Room, and you will likely see a tragedy in slow motion: a Child confined to a couch, staring passively at a Screen, shut away from the living world. It is highly unfair that modern life systematically denies children their inborn instincts to explore nature. We have traded the wild, expansive development of the human spirit for a sedentary, couch-potato existence.

In the Evenings at least. Think of all the Fun or Creative or Family Things we miss out on during those wasted hours (often) and all the times we have wished we had more time? We can more often have Precious Bonding Moments in the Evenings which can bring treasured memories.

I know exactly what our Children are Missing because I lived the alternative. For twelve beautiful, formative years, my world was a Country Beach Town. My child years were defined by a rich landscape of tall trees to climb, big slopy sandhills by a flowing river to venture, an endless shoreline to stroll along and splash in, and neighbouring paddocks that invited endless venture and exploration.…

PLEASE DON'T OVERPROTECT and SMOTHER THEM or LEAVE THEM TO TECH DEVICES TO BABYSIT THEM. TRULY, THESE THINGS DO THEM DISFAVOURS and YOU IN THE LONGRUN.
THIS IS WORTH READING!

Every Single Child is born with an Individual Blueprint—a Unique set of giftings, talents, and inner wisdom waiting to be uncovered. However, these gifts cannot be discovered on a loungeroom couch watching TV, or can they be unlocked by an iPad app. A screen does all the thinking for a Child, programming their impressionable young minds and forcing a passive compliance. When children are shut up in Modern Housing (high-density housing and concrete suburbs we find ourselves in these days) it stunts their ability to think for themselves, trapping them in an intellectual and spiritual poverty - if they don't have access to Outdoors. They need Fresh-Air and Sunshine. They need to See Nature and have some around them.

Nature is the ultimate incubator for a child's true potential. When a Child is placed in an unstructured natural environment, their imagination instantly awakens. A simple stick becomes a tool; a pile of river rocks becomes a castle; a fallen tree branch becomes a challenge to overcome.…

For those of us who grew up with the horizon as our playground, looking at a modern suburban block can feel disheartening. It seems almost impossible to replicate the magic of a country upbringing when you are surrounded by high-density housing and concrete roads. But a child’s inborn instinct to explore does not require miles of wilderness to wake up; it simply requires us to stop over-sanitising and over-managing their environment. You do not need an acreage to rescue your child from a sedentary lifestyle. With a few deliberate choices, you can bring the raw, healing elements of country living right into your suburban backyard.

Hi Friends, When I first sat down to write this series, my heart was focused entirely on our children — on the unfairness of the couch-potato lifestyle and the critical need to return young, developing minds to the healthy dirt, the blessing of sunshine, and the wild earth. But as I peeled back the layers of this modern crisis, a deeper truth stared back at me.

We cannot give our Children a Gift we do not have Ourselves.
We can Explore it though, if we have the Courage to Try something New.

The reality is that an entire generation of Modern Parents were raised inside the exact same suburban, screen-centric bubble that is now confining their kids. If you find the outdoors exhausting, dirty, or frankly a bit boring, it is not your fault. You were programmed by concrete and glass just as your children are being programmed today.

Excessive Time Indoors with so much TV Viewing and Time spent on Tech Devices is a highly Synthetic Lifestyle. No wonder we're Stressed. Did you know that those things actually Set our System Up for Stress when we spend so much time with them, because they're actually Foreign to the way we were Created and what we were essentially Designed to Respond to (Best) NATURE........this…

Small Acts Of Kindness Can Create Ripples Of Joy
That Brighten Someone’s Day—And Yours, Too

Kindness doesn’t have to be grand to matter. Small gestures, like a compliment, a helping hand, or simply being there for someone, can leave a lasting impression on the people around you. These thoughtful, simple actions not only spread positivity but also remind us of the beauty of human connection.

Kindness Can Spread Happiness
Care To Join Me?

Compliment Someone

A genuine compliment can make someone's day brighter. Notice the little things—like their smile or the effort they put into their work—and let them know you see them. Your kind words might linger with them longer than you expect.

Write a Thank-You Note

A handwritten note of gratitude feels like a rare treasure in a digital age. Thank someone for their time, kindness, or a small favor—they’ll cherish the thoughtfulness. It’s an act that costs little but means a lot.

Hold the Door Open

Pausing to hold the door for someone is a small but mighty gesture. It shows respect and reminds people that kindness exists in everyday moments. Bonus: it often earns you a smile or a thank you in return.…

Published on Leave a comment on Habits People Over 60 Still Practice That Quietly Built Stronger Families Than Most Modern Advice Ever Could

Maybe the Best Modern Advice isn’t New at all.
It’s time we Start Practicing what they Never Stopped Doing.

By Adam Kelton from Veg Out Mag

We like to think our generation has it all figured out.

We have life coaches, mindfulness apps, therapy podcasts, and endless advice online.

But talk to someone in their 60s or 70s, and you’ll quickly realize that many of them built something that feels increasingly rare: families that actually stay close, grounded, and connected.

They didn’t have fancy tools or self-help jargon.

What they had were simple habits that worked because they were lived, not preached.

Here are nine of those habits that quietly built stronger families than most modern advice ever could.

Families Who Eat Together Are Often Happier
Shared Mealtimes Are Good For Bonding

They Ate Together

It sounds small, but this one was the glue.

In most homes decades ago, dinner wasn’t optional.

You didn’t scroll through your phone in the living room or grab a plate and disappear to your room.

You sat down, waited for everyone, and ate together.

Psychologists have since confirmed what our grandparents already knew: shared meals strengthen emotional bonds, improve communication, and reduce the chances of kids developing anxiety or depression.…

Published on Leave a comment on ‘I Married The Train Driver Who Saved My Life’ A Couple Share Their Story To Help Those Who Feel Down

From the BBC Good News

This article contains a small reference to suicide and a mental health issue.

On a summer afternoon in 2019, nurse Charlotte Lay got ready for her night shift as normal but "wasn't feeling quite right".

Within a short space of time she had decided to end her own life close to a West Yorkshire railway station.

But thanks to the kindness of the train driver who found her in crisis, she did not go through with it.

Three years later they married each other and went on to have children.

The couple credit each other with saving their lives

"I'd struggled with my mental health since my teens and I'd been in and out of the system since," Charlotte, now 33, says.

Her memories of that day five years ago are "quite blurry" but she says she remembers seeing a train pulling up on the tracks where she was.

"I remember seeing a man getting off the train and starting to panic and thinking he was going to tell me off," she recalls.

"He approached me and said 'hi, my name is Dave, are you having a bad day?'…
