Ecclesiastes and the Weight of Meaninglessness
Have you ever noticed how unsettling Ecclesiastes feels compared to most of Scripture. It does not rush to reassure. It does not soften its conclusions. It returns again and again to the same observation: everything fades, everything repeats, and nothing under the sun seems capable of holding still long enough to become permanent. Wisdom fails to secure lasting satisfaction. Pleasure loses its edge. Work outlives the worker. Even moral effort appears unable to guarantee stability. For many readers, this tone feels almost dissonant, as if the book is saying out loud what faith is supposed to quiet.

When Parents Feel Alone and Adult Kids Feel Overwhelmed
Being an adult these days is really busy. Our jobs take up a lot of time we spend a lot of time traveling to and from work. We have other things we do on the side that take up our weekends. On top of all that we have a lot of family things to take care of. Aging parents are often very lonely even if we do not forget about them. The thing is, we just do not have a lot of time for aging parents anymore. Time is very scarce, for everyone, including our aging parents.

Why Life Gets Better After 50
If you think about life as a picture of how happy people are we have always thought it looks like a hill that goes up and then comes down. You start out when you are young and things get better and better you reach the top when you are in the middle of your life. Then it starts to get worse and worse as you get older.. What if we have been looking at this picture the wrong way? Some new research about how people think and feel is showing us that it is actually shaped like a U. When people are in the middle of their life they are often very busy and stressed out and they are not as happy as they used to be. But then something unexpected happens people start to get happier after they turn 50 and they just keep getting happier and happier. Life is, like a U shape happiness goes down. Then it comes back up again and that is what the research is showing us about life and happiness. This isn’t about denying the very real challenges of aging, but about uncovering the profound psychological shifts that make this chapter uniquely satisfying. Here’s the science and soul behind why contentment so often blooms in later life.

Why I Go to Physical Therapy Every Week Even Though It Wrecks My Schedule
Nobody wants to hear this, but I'm going to say it anyway. I go to physical every single week. Not because I'm injured. Not because something is broken. Not because a doctor told me I had to.

Why People Keep Coming Back to the Sauna
Saunas aren’t new. Long before they appeared in boutique gyms, luxury hotels, or wellness retreats, they were woven into daily life in places like Finland, Russia, and across parts of Eastern Europe. They weren’t marketed. They weren’t optimized. They were simply part of how people lived.

How to Avoid Looking Old-Fashioned Without Losing Who You Are
Growing older does not automatically mean becoming disconnected, rigid, or outdated. Yet many seniors share a quiet fear: appearing “old-fashioned.” Not because they are ashamed of their age, but because they sometimes feel a growing gap between themselves and a world that seems to be moving faster every year.

Most People Don't Feel Unhealthy ...Until Their Body Starts Limiting Their Life
Most people don't wake up one day and feel unhealthy. That's the problem. Decline doesn't announce itself. It blends in. It feels like stress. Like being busy. Like getting older. Like a phase that will pass once things calm down.
