WALL•E is rated G, and, apart from one or two scenes that might be a little frightening for the very young, it’s suitable for all ages. The short [...]

Do you find it harder to forgive some people than others? There are the remorseful who obviously are sorry for whatever pain they have caused you. For the most part these folks are the easiest to forgive…. Maybe easy is not the right word. I guess it depends on the offense. Maybe in your mind you [...]

I believe it is part of God’s plan. We each have our own set of strengths and weaknesses and we are attracted to a person who will compliment those [...]
