		<title>Encourage or Discourage?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love Labs. Who doesn’t? A Labrador is one of the happiest, most companionable dogs on the planet. I’ve had a few Labs in my life and one characteristic they shared was that they loved the water with wild abandon. I don’t share that love at all, in fact I’m water phobic. Not to worry, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mind Over Mutter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If we spoke every thought and worry throughout the day, we’d mutter an unending stream of words from dawn to dusk. Imagine how destructive that would be!

		<title>Is Your Ache All In Your Head?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While wogging this morning (walking a little/jogging a little), I had a thought. Exercise does that to me. It helps me do a bit of mental cave spelunking. Today, I thought about pain levels. It was an unusually humid day for SoCal standards: pitifully blechy outside. And since humidity is a common trigger for increased [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pain Ability or Disability?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Life is full of things we want to do and things we don’t want to do. We want to participate in activities such as hosting a family birthday party or going to lunch with friends. We’d rather not take the car in for an oil change or scour the bathroom.
