The Saddest Truth About Lies By: Deidre Glendon | - As a little child do you remember your mother or a significant adult cautioning you against telling "little white lies" because it could lead to much bigger lies that could eventually hurt you and others?

The Art Of Living Well By: Stephen Lau | - We are all living in this world. But do we all live well -- or do we just exist? Living well has little to do with material things.

So, what is living well? Or, more precisely, what is the art of living well?

How To Take A Compliment By: C S Lewis | - "Oh, I didn't do that good of a job," or "No, I don't look pretty today, are you kidding?" These are pretty common responses to compliments these days.

How To Tick People Off Through Acts Of Kindness By: C S Lewis | - A popular saying reads, "No good deed goes unpunished."

It will not be our reason, intellectual insight, or mental agility, since these qu ... Tags:niceness, political correctness, kindness, phony, authenticity, relationship

Toes Are People Too! By: Sally Huss | - It was a cold, rainy day in La Jolla. Unusual, although it was winter, it was still unusual for the area. That's why I figured my son ended up coming into our art gallery one morning with a big bulky jacket on and nothing to cover his feet but sandals.
