31. FREE CHRISTMAS MUSIC, (Sorry it is so late)

To begin this new post, I want to refer anyone interested to the newly published statement by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints of "Race and the Priesthood".  I have read it, and really enjoyed it.  You may find it here:

  http://www.lds.org/topics/race-and-the-priesthood?lang=eng    (copy)

I don't know why I didn't think of it before, but I want to offer free Christmas music to anyone who is interested. 

  I realize it is a bit late, only 2 weeks until Christmas Eve.  But if you are interested, perhaps you can get copies and save them for next year.  I have a lot of music I have arranged, and composed on an internet site:   www.musichousepublications.com  (copy and paste)  I have the copyrights, and I really love to give them free to anyone interested who asks me.  

 All of the music available on that site, I also have on my home computer in PDF files -- so if you have Adobe Reader, (which is free to download) you can print them out.  If you go to the website and want to listen to any of them, and don't have some program that plays the music to you, it tells you how to download it free so you can listen.  If there is any other music you'd like I'd be happy to e mail it to you free.   (Look under "Our Composers" and find my name -- Paralee Miles Eckman -- on that site.) 

 Also look under Free Sheet Music, and under 



 My e mail is:   paralee_eckman@infowest.com  

 You are welcome to share this with anyone you would like.  I just love for my music to be used!  Please e mail me with your requests.

121. Have you had your own Personal Gethsemane? I have had -- twice!

Image
I ran across this article this morning from a blog called:  LDS S.M.I.L E.  You  can also follow it at:    http://www.ldssmile.com   (Copy and paste)             It stands for LDS Spiritually Minded is Life Eternal. I have copied it as it was in their blog.  In my title, I mentioned I have had a Personal Gethsemane, not once, but two times, both quite different.  They are extremely personal, and I will not go into them here.  Only some family members know, and not even some of whom are my dearest friends.  Some deep problems are very personal, and some are known by many people, and perhaps are mentioned in the media!  They are as diverse as our lives are! But I do know the only thing that allowed me to keep my faith, courage, and personal self control to go on with normal life was our Savior, Jesus Christ, and the comfort I felt from prayer, and yes -- Personal Priesthood blessings. ...

993. Are We Ever Released from the Responsibilities of Parenting? By Julie de Azevedo Hanks · January 16, 2018, in Meridian Magazine

These are great thoughts, and very wise! Are We Ever Released from the Responsibilities of Parenting? By Julie de Azevedo Hanks  · January 16, 2018 We’ve heard phrases like “parenting is a calling from which you are never released [i] , [ii] ” over the pulpit many times, but rarely do we actually reflect on what this means. When taken literally, that it’s a parent’s job to continue to be their child’s caretaker throughout their lives, this belief can create enmeshed families with weak boundaries that undermine the adult child’s agency. Here are some ideas to consider about the danger of parents who are overly involved with their adult children and adult children who don’t fully transition into an adult role. Intrusive Parents   Too often, this belief of eternal parenthood is used to justify a parent giving constant (often unsolicited) input or criticism into an adult child’s life decisions. Does never being released from parenthood mea...
