EDITOR’S

NOTE

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Martin Luther King, Jr. As I write this, our country grieves the death of George Floyd, and is trying to process the destruction resulting from protests—I am at a loss for words. This quote from Martin Luther King, Jr. is at the forefront of my mind.

This month’s issue of The Grand Season Family is about determination. I know the last few months have been difficult—but things will get better. When we reflect on these events in five years, we will see how they’ve positively shaped our community. However, nothing will change unless we change it—and change requires determination.

Contents

Determination to be the best version of yourself.

Determination to listen and understand one another.

Determination to help our neighbors rebuild their businesses.

Determination to love one another despite our differences.

Thank you for your support of The Grand Season Family, and our advertising partners who make our publication possible. And to all of the dads reading, Happy Father’s Day! Be a light in the darkness!

DETERMINATION

Let us not be content to wait and see what will happen, but give us the determination to make the right things happen. Horace Mann Time can be an ally or an enemy. What it becomes depends entirely upon you, your goals, and your determination to use every available minute. Zig Ziglar

Have a “can do” attitude.

The American Dream is simple: it’s the unwavering belief that anybody — you, me, your friends, your neighbors — can become exceedingly successful, and all it takes is the right amount of work, ingenuity, and determination. Mark Manson

Dreams can still come true; you need a great deal of energy and determination, and a little bit of luck. Stefano Gabbana

Determination gives you the resolve to keep going in spite of the roadblocks that lay before you. Denis Waitley

A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work. Colin Powell

We have the force, the energy, and the determination, and we will not give in to fear.

Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.

Og Mandino

Crystallize your goals. Make a plan for achieving them and set yourself a deadline. Then, with supreme confidence, determination and disregard for obstacles and other people’s criticisms, carry out your plan. Paul J. Meyer I’ve always found that anything worth achieving will always have obstacles in the way, and you’ve got to have that drive and determination to overcome those obstacles on route to whatever it is that you want to accomplish. Chuck Norris The hardest struggle of all is to be something different from what the average man is. I don’t believe in ‘super-men,’ for the world is full of capable men, but it’s the fellow with determination that wins out. Charles M. Schwab

YOU

BE BRAVE Start over, one step at-a-time

Cultivating courage can be easy if we focus on putting in the time and energy to do it. Here are some of my favorite methods for developing courage on a daily basis:

1. Know yourself.

Take the time to examine who you are as a person, so you can figure out your strengths and the areas where maybe you need to grow a little to be courageous. Then, start working on those areas where you could use some improvement, or ask for help from others, so they can pick up the slack.

2. Take responsibility for your mistakes.

Look at how you live your life and where you have made errors. Own up to your mistakes, recognize them and try to learn from them.

Apologize as needed.

3. Forgive yourself.

No one is perfect. Strive for progress, not perfection. If you fall off the horse, be kind to yourself and get right back on.

4. Stand up for yourself.

Do not let others push you to think, act or feel in ways not right for you. Be brave in standing up for your wants and needs.

5. Don’t give up.

Remember, you will always have hope as long as you keep trying. When times get tough and your courage is waning; rest, recharge and then keep going. Fight for what you want and need.

6. Learn to say yes.

If something sounds appealing but it is a little scary, say yes and try it. At least put a toe in the water—you may discover something new about yourself.

7. On the other hand, learn to say “no.”

If something or someone makes you uncomfortable, rally your courage and say “no” to investing your time and energy.

8. Let go of what you can’t fix or change.

Even the most courageous of people can’t change what they can’t change. If you can’t fix something, let go of it, accept it as it is and invest your skills in areas that you can change or improve.

LOVE

REFRESH Don’t let your relationship get stale.

Sometimes it’s difficult to understand your spouse. Let’s be honest, we communicate and think differently than our other half. To keep your marriage relationship fresh—and growing stronger—each spouse must practice being attentive to the other person’s needs and desires.

3. Share your time. This is your life, right now.

Whether your marriage is struggling, or you just want to keep things fresh, here are some ideas for building unity and getting a grip on bliss:

Don’t get so busy that you forget to slow down and enjoy life—and to enjoy it with your spouse.

It’s a compliment when your spouse wants to spend time with you. Plan out and prioritize your calendar.

1. Be romantic. Great romance doesn’t just

4. Make communication a priority. Learn

happen, it’s planned. Place importance on

looking for new ways to say, “I love you!”

2. Date your spouse. Don’t lose that loving

feeling you had when you first started dating.

Commit to regular date nights, and take turns choosing the agenda. Don’t take calls or texts during your date. This is the time to rekindle dreams and fresh thoughts for the future.

June 2020 10 The Grand Season family

your mate’s communication style. Everyone communicates differently. Tell your spouse the best way to talk with you. Pay attention and actively listen to what your spouse has to say: nod, reply and make eye contact.

5. Sex—take your role seriously. Great sex is the responsibility of both spouses. Seek to fulfill your spouse’s needs before your own. And don’t www.grandseasonfamily.com

6. Support change. You and your spouse will

change over the course of your marriage and it’s important to accept those changes. Continue to value and trust each other, but don’t try to hold the other back from growth—it’s easy for resentment to creep in if you do.

7. Celebrate milestones. Be intentional about

making memories with your spouse, especially for holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

Create your own celebrations and traditions as a couple. If a day is especially important to one spouse, celebrate it the way he or she wants to.

KIDS

LET’S PLAY

Create memories playing together

Food. Shelter. Love. And…games?

Though playtime may not pop to mind when you list the essentials for family happiness, it’s one of the best things you can share with your partner or kids.

“It connects family members to each other,” says marriage and family therapist Marie Hartwell-Walker, Ed.D. She recommends playing games of all kinds together, from Parcheesi to Ping-Pong, Tiddlywinks to Tag. “It teaches sportsmanship. It teaches vocabulary and communication, all those social skills—take your turn, be patient with a younger one, have a little respect for the older ones.”

The Benefits of Playing Games may even make kids more resilient. “It’s easier to face life’s setbacks if you’ve seen Mom shrug it off when she flubs a Frisbee toss, or Dad laugh when his golf ball lands in the water,” Marie says.

Of course, in this time of togetherness, there’s no better time to get out and spend time playing together.

12

The Grand Season family

June 2020

Game Time Another key to playing more? Put regular game nights on your calendar. “Institutionalizing anything makes sure it happens,” Marie says. What games are right for your family?

“The main thing I would stress is that they need to be age appropriate to the child, not the adult—and as the child grows, you should introduce more games that require the kid to stretch.”

Often the best games are spur-of-the-moment, improvisational games, such as where you play characters (spies, advice experts) over dinner or at the supermarket; spoken word games that involve rhymes or synonyms; even cleanup games (two points each time you toss a pair of undies in the hamper!).

In the end, it’s play itself, more than any specific game, that matters. “It’s the fact that this is family time,” Marie says.

Memories of family games “will last through your children’s lives. These are the ties that bind.” www.grandseasonfamily.com

To keep the kitchen garbage can from smelling, put spoiled food items in a bread bag, and then put it in the freezer until it’s time for the garbage collector.

Place recipes inside of a plastic bag so that they can be handled while cooking, but not dirtied. This is especially necessary with heirloom recipes.

Clogged drain? Don’t use chemicals. If you do encounter a clogged drain, try hot water and baking soda first. If that doesn’t work, try a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Avoid plumbing snakes, which can scratch the interior of your pipes.

To keep dirt from sticking to your dustpan, spray it lightly with furniture polish. Buff with a cloth so that it’s not wet.

Floor dirt will slide right off.

If you have a stubborn stain on the driveway or garage floor, try oven cleaner. Spray the spot and cover it (to keep pets out) and then let it sit for several hours.

Give it a good scrub and rinse with the hose. It might just do the trick!

Clean hairbrushes and combs by soaking them in a baking soda/water solution. Put them bristles down in a large cup and add the solution.

CELEBRATE

DADS MAKE A DIFFERENCE

When it comes to parenting, it can sometimes feel like fathers are second best. Depictions of dads in popular culture push the stereotype of fathers as incompetent, emotionally disconnected, “secondary” parents who are not nearly as important to their children as their mothers. In reality, although a mother’s love is important and special, having an active father figure plays an equally important role in the healthy development of a child.

Here are some important ways fathers impact child development:

1. Increase Intellect.

Dad might be a bit of a goofball, but an active father can help increase your child’s emotional intelligence and problem-solving capabilities. Studies show that children with fathers who were actively involved throughout the 1st year of their child’s life perform better on cognitive development assessments and demonstrate an increased capacity for curiosity and exploration.

Children raised with active dads tend to score higher on verbal and math tests and are less likely to drop out of school or commit juvenile crimes.

2. Boost Confidence.

The emotional support provided by a father to his child is a priceless gift. By helping kids to understand how much they are valued and loved, children with supportive fathers are more likely to have high self-esteem and are generally happier and more confident.

They also demonstrate

a greater tolerance for stress, less hesitation in new situations and an increased ability to resist peer pressure and stand up for themselves.

3. Someone to Look Up To.

Fathers provide a positive male role model for their children and help to promote/reinforce good behaviors. As a result, children with more involved fathers tend to have fewer behavioral and impulse control problems, longer attention spans and a higher level of sociability. These children also tend to be more compassionate and generous, with an increased awareness of the needs and rights of others.

4. Provide A Different Perspective.

Children are naturally full of questions, and mothers and fathers approach those questions in different ways. Active parents with different approaches to parenting can be a great way to expose children to a broad range of thinking and problemsolving. Active fathers have a unique opportunity to share their perspective on life and teach their kids valuable life skills!

5. Feel the Love!

It’s the most obvious thing to say, but that doesn’t make it any less important – having an active father makes a child feel loved! Having dad as a steady source of love and encouragement helps ensure that children grow up happy and healthy.

Flowers have long been an important part of human culture. We’ve used their alluring blooms to beautify our homes and outdoors; captured their essence in the written word, clothing, design and perfumes; and showcased them in romance, rituals and special events. As symbolic as flowers remain in our lives, there is increasing evidence that their very presence has both immediate and long-term effects on our happiness and overall satisfaction with life.

decreased anxiety, improved life satisfaction and overall well-being.

Whether you enjoy your flowers in a vase or in the garden, the power they have on our emotional health and moods goes far beyond what was once believed. Through the ages their language and meanings have adapted to countless cultures.

Here are a few translations flowers hold in today’s culture: AMARYLLIS: Pride, splendid beauty, determination.

Famed American botanist and horticulturist Luther Burbank was well-aware of this symbiotic relationship between people and flowers, as evidenced by his quote: “Flowers always make people better, happier and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine to the soul.”

BIRD OF PARADISE: Freedom, joyfulness, faithfulness.

Research findings concur with what Luther knew all along. A behavioral study shows that not only do flowers make us happier than we know, they also evoke strong positive effects on our emotional well-being.

PEONY: Happy marriage, good fortune, compassion.

Flowers nurture our happiness, and in turn, we cultivate them in our gardens and help nurture their growth. Several reports indicate there are significant benefits derived from flowers and other ornamental plants, including June 2020

DAFFODIL: New beginnings; “The sun is always shining when I’m with you.”

DAYLILY: Forgetting worries.

GLADIOLUS: Strength of character, moral integrity, love at first sight.

ROSE: As a group they symbolize love and passion, but each color evokes its own specific meaning. Red is enduring passion; white is innocence and purity; yellow expresses friendship and joy; pink is for gratitude, perfect happiness and appreciation; orange is for enthusiasm and desire.

SUNFLOWER: Adoration, longevity, happiness.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING A PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR

Who knows you best? Your spouse?

Son or daughter? Best friend? If your primary care doctor doesn’t make the list, you could be missing out on one of the most important relationships when it comes to your health and well-being.

Here are 5 tips on how to choose the right primary care doctor for you.

1. Ask around.

The first step to finding a great doctor: Talk to your family and friends about their great doctors. A recommendation from someone you trust is a great way to identify a highly skilled, helpful physician.

2. Map it out.

Since you’ll be visiting your primary care doctor for everyday health needs, it’s important that he or she be located somewhere convenient to you. You won’t want to travel very far when you’re not feeling good.

3. Make sure you’ve got coverage.

Once you’ve identified some possible candidates, check whether they work with your health plan.

4. Place a cold call.

Call a potential doctor’s office for a first impression of the practice.

5. Keep your needs in mind.

Every person has unique health needs, and those needs change as people age. Ask your doctor about his or her specialties or areas of interest.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren.

Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.”
