When I was very young, my sister and I would play hide-and-go-seek with my father. He was so good at the game. I’m not sure where he really hid, but he always told us that he was under the carpet. And we believed him. It’s funny how it’s possible to hide in plain sight. I [...]

My netlogx experience will always spark memories of my desperate attempts to predict traffic, as I sat frustrated in my car while being stuck on Fall Creek or College Avenue. While fighting back the urge to express my frustration towards the stand still mess that is rush-hour, I understood that the issue was practically irrelevant [...]

Days at netlogx

When I entered this internship I was expecting a rigid schedule in which I come in at a certain hour and leave at another certain hour. To my surprise it was not like that; the hours I work are based on how much work I have. As I am an intern for netlogx from the [...]

The Curious Case for “Welfare”

By |2022-09-05T14:23:55-04:00June 23rd, 2016|

During the May 22 – 25 APSHA National Health and Human Services 2016 Summit, I was struck by the use of the word “welfare” and in particular by whom.  Over the past 20+ years “welfare” has been supplanted by the more politically correct terms of “human services” or “social services”.  I have to admit that [...]

Last week I was dragged into a new grocery store, and I am never going back. Now you’re probably thinking the produce must be awful, or they didn’t have my brand of organic tofu, or maybe they just had terrible service. And I think it could be construed as a sort of bad service. I [...]

The Power of Yes!

Sometimes its important to stop.  Stop what you are doing, stop what you are thinking and just be. When the day is spiraling out of your grasp, just let it go.  Stop.  Breathe in.  Breathe out. Do it again.  Be still and quiet. Take the time to consider all the wonderful things you have in [...]
