The human heart is a mysterious and sometimes dark place.

I'm wondering how someone who goes around wearing a wedding ring succeeded in the dating pool. Normally a wedding ring sends a flashing "Do Not Enter" message - except to those looking for flings with married people.

I marvel with distress that in 2015 we are fighting the vaccination wars. It is deeply disturbing that people who should be able to weigh discredited so-called studies instead believe garbage, and so are willing to endanger their children and others. I sincerely hope this madness burns itself out before a lot more people get hurt.

Sometimes people back themselves into corners where they think they have to make kind of an engraved-in-stone decision.

Interfering, judgmental, and disrespectful mothers-in-law are common complaints.

If you think a caregiver has an active substance abuse problem, that person should never be entrusted with your child.

People who have undergone a loss get a fair amount of leeway on their behavior.
