​Do you remember the old TV show "Kids Say the Darndest Things" hosted by Art Linkletter  1945-1969? He speaks of the story of his granddaughter asking him what to talk about in front of her class, and he replied, "I am sure you can come up with something appropriate to say on your own." The next day, while holding Art's hand she says to the classroom, "this is my grandpa, he is 80 years old, and he is still alive."

​The idiom says, "an apple a day keeps the doctor away," and this works amazingly well, “providing you can throw straight.” With that said, who really enjoys visiting the doctor?

In one of this week's episodes, we discussed a revolutionary product that serves as a fire retardant thus home and family are protected from forest wildfires and accidental fire within the home.

​It was in the 1600s That a Swiss medical student coined the word (nostalgia) while serving in European wars due to the emotional pain of longing to return home, we call it home sickness. Incidentally, (Nostos) translates to (return), and (algos) carries the meaning of (pain).)  Because these emotions triggered anxiety and even physical sickness due to being away from familiarity. We as Humans have a fundamental need to belong, and because nostalgia is centric to past personal events relating to people and things  we care for, this tends to evoke a nostalgic sense of belonging.
