Couples could benefit from mediation

 

Many couples divorcing would benefit from a thorough explanation of the savings and benefits of using mediation. This is not done in a consistent manner, and too often adverserial attorneys end up pitting their clients against each other.

 

Often 'no contact' orders are put in place, and rather than allow advocates or friends seek information and explore options from www.nolo.com on Building a Parenting Plan that works and other helpful books such as CT Friendly Divorce Guidebook, the divorcing spouses run high debt and rushed agreements, often

Helping the Homeless, those in Transitions, Wrongfully Put in Prison and Preventing Abuse (all in one post for your advocacy convenience for self and others..)

I've met many a homeless in the NYC area and a few in Great Barrington MA and the MA/NY CT try-corner area and hope others are keeping an eye on 
any homeless (or houseless, even though one may or does own a house... but just doesn't or can't live in it.)

Maybe a few more folks offering help such as a van he could sit in or put his stuff in and transport from one end of town to the other from time to time would be welcome..just one or two nice folks helping him and maybe a few others could help turn the tide of his situation where there have been bumps in the road.

 We start to wonder why

"Is this his or our choice?"

Do any of us really have a clear voice?

How can we make some noise and 

Ask what's going on for all of us girls and boys?

Is it all about wearing fancy pants, 

Knowing the moves and how to 'really dance'?

What roles can we play in a movie,

I invite you to listen in on my quick trip to Montreal, Canada from New York City from Wednesday, June 8th through Sunday, June 12th, 2016. I was unaware of the tragic event unfolding in Orlando, Florida at the Pulse Club shortly after 2am on Sunday. I will continue to pray for healing for all families and communities who were first line and secondary victims as well as US All who have much to think about deeply locally and globally to prevent such downturns in our free society.

Whistle a little Tune this June...for fun and maybe in memory of a loved one too!

This June 2016, while people are worrying about political nightmares that seem to be real when they wake up, why not take a commercial break and think of some loved ones, including precious self, and sing a song of gratitude that someway, somehow, everything's '

worked out, so far...more or less. What IF our loved ones on the other side (and even here) could hear our thoughts? My Mom Mary's been in heaven 12 years now, and my Dad Dale 9 years.
