Feeling scared?
What a scary time we live in right now. Even if you are doing fine and staying healthy, fear and panic can almost overwhelm you at times.
Here’s a simple but magical phrase I’ve been using to help me manage fears, not only during this time, but for the past few years.
Life is good until it’s not. And right now it’s fine.
Let me explain how this works. [Read more…]

How to post a book review on Amazon:
(Note: In order to post book reviews, Amazon requires that you have
spent at least $50 on Amazon.com in the past 12 months, using a valid credit or debit card.)
1. Log in to your Amazon account.
2. Go to this page, then select the book format (print, or ebook) you purchased. You can also go to “your orders” to view the book.
3. Scroll down to the Customer Reviews section and then click on the “Write a customer review” button.
4. On the next screen you will see the title of the book you want to review and next to it, five light gray stars.
Rate the book by clicking on the appropriate number of stars you want to give the book. Your selection will turn the stars blue.
Here is a guide to the number of stars you can give.
1 = I hate it.
2 = I don’t like it.
3 = It’s okay.
4 = I like it.
5 = I love it.
5. A text box will appear below the stars. Here you will write or paste in the text of your book review. Then you can also add a headline for your review, if you wish.
When you’re done, press the “Submit” button.
6. You will see the message “Thanks for your review of Acts of Compassion. We’re currently processing your review and we will email you at as soon as this is complete.”
Once Amazon lets you know your review is complete or your review shows on Amazon, send me an email telling me the date of your review and the name you used to post it. Also tell me whether you purchased the print book or the ebook version.
Email me: lmspangle@gmail.com
As soon as I can see the review, I will email you an Amazon gift card equal to the price you paid for the book. That means you get the book for free.
In the last post, I told you about a column written by Drs. Oz and Roizen and their recommendations for helping overweight kids.
I didn’t like some of their advice, so I’m adding my own twist to what they said.
I’ve already told you my thoughts about their suggestion that you walk or exercise with your child for two hours a day. Here’s their second “great” idea. [Read more…]
