Week 313

Positive post Sunday, February 26, 2023- Week 313.  Today is the first Sunday in Lent and after Ash Wednesday.  As I do each year during Lent, I’ve begun my daily reading from The Year in Our Church from Loyola Press.  Reading these brief, yet thoughtful and reflective, writings is a great way to start off…

Week 312

Positive post Sunday, February 19, 2023- Week 312.  As we approach Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, I have been reflecting on the origin and foundation of my PPS posts.  As some might recall, I started my journey of writing back in 2017 (312 weeks ago!).  At that time, I decided to do something…

Week 311

Positive post Sunday, February 12, 2023- Week 311.  Yes, today is Superbowl Sunday, and I was tempted to write about all the “positive” time many football fans will be enjoying today with family and friends.  However, I chose to write about something much more important, the “Sacrament of Marriage”.  My friends who are die-hard football…

Week 310

Positive post Sunday, February 5, 2023- Week 310.  I’ve been giving a lot of thought to conflict resolution this week.  We all experience conflict in our lives, those times when we may not see eye to eye with someone.  I can think of several examples or experiences in both my personal life and professional life…

Week 309

Positive post Sunday, January 29, 2023- Week 309.  This week’s PPS can be summed up in one word, “Goodwill”.  However, I will share several words as I have a great deal of passion when it comes to Goodwill.  Although there are several definitions of goodwill including, friendly, helpful, or cooperative feelings or attitude and the…

Week 308

Positive post Sunday, January 22, 2023- Week 308.  The Responsorial Psalm for this Sunday is from Psalm 27:1, “The Lord is my light and my salvation”.  Thinking about the Lord as my light reminded me that it is in darkness (challenging times) that we need light (the Lord) the most.  If we look to the…

Week 307

Positive post Sunday, January 15, 2023- Week 307.  Let me apologize upfront to my Facebook family and friends that are not cyclists as I am writing about yet another very important cycling milestone.  I’m confident that, even if you are not a cyclist, you will see the connection to your Faith, Family and Fitness, the…

Week 306

Positive post Sunday, January 8, 2023- Week 306.  As we settle into the New Year, most of us have put the holiday decorations away and made our New Year’s resolutions (or if you read last week’s PPS, Resolutions for Goodwill).  While getting back into our regular routines, returning to work or going back to school…

Week 305

Positive post Sunday, January 1, 2023- Week 305.  Happy New Year!  Like most people, you may have already made a New Year’s resolution or are considering one.  You know, resolutions like losing weight, going to the gym, getting organized and the list goes on.  The challenge many of us face each year is making realistic…

Week 304
