Ep204 Paul's Trials

Forsaken But Not Forsaken: Brother Jim Shaw Preaches Paul's Final Words to Timothy

Brother Jim Shaw works through Paul's closing words to Timothy in Second Timothy chapter four, drawing lessons on being forsaken by friends, trusting no man, and fighting self-pity by setting one's sights on Jesus.

Paul Declares His Course Is Finished
Brother Jim Shaw opens the broadcast by telling listeners that if a spirit of self-pity ever tries to creep in, they should remember what Jesus endured, and that anyone walking in his steps will suffer the same. He turns to Second Timothy chapter four, reading Paul's declaration that he is ready to be offered, that his departure is at hand, and that he has fought a good fight, finished his course, and kept the faith. Shaw explains that Paul is telling Timothy plainly that his time is up, with a crown of righteousness waiting for him and for all who love the Lord's appearing. He frames the passage as Paul settling his affairs near the end of his ministry, a man who had traveled constantly, been shipwrecked, and landed on islands, now facing his final chapter with a short list of requests for his young protege.

Demas Departs and Alexander Does Harm
Shaw reads how Paul tells Timothy that Demas, once a good friend mentioned elsewhere in the Gospel, has forsaken him, having loved the present world, and has departed for Thessalonica, while Crescens and Titus have gone to Galatia and Dalmatia. Only Luke remains with him, and Paul asks Timothy to bring Mark, calling him profitable for ministry, along with the cloak, books, and parchments left at Troas with Carpus. Shaw pauses on the detail that Paul, perhaps the greatest worker for spreading the Word, is left with a single companion. He then highlights Paul naming Alexander the coppersmith, who did him much evil, and Paul's response that the Lord will reward him according to his works. Shaw uses this to warn listeners that Christianity is not simply sweet and pleasant, since believers are fighting principalities, powers, and rulers from the moment they wake.

Delivered From The Lion's Mouth
Shaw reads Paul's account that at his first answer no man stood with him, that all men forsook him, yet he prays it will not be held against them, because the Lord stood with him and strengthened him so the preaching would be fully known to the Gentiles, and he was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. Shaw says he believes this lion represents demonic attack rather than a literal animal, comparing it to the opposition Paul faced in Galatia when he exposed churches' sin and conferred not with flesh and blood. He warns that anyone resisting bondage such as greed, covetousness, sexual lust, fear, or respect of men will come under attack and suffer affliction even within the kingdom. Shaw insists believers must preach to themselves first, warning that hypocrites who live in conscious sin while claiming to serve the kingdom destroy testimonies and do the kingdom no good.

Jesus In The Garden As The Example
Shaw distinguishes between demonic possession, which he says never afflicted Jesus, and the deliverance some believers need when demons have taken hold of their minds, requiring spiritual warfare to be loosed. He points listeners to Jesus in the garden as the ultimate example, describing the attack Jesus endured there so severe that blood poured from his vessels, calling this the model of what believers may be called to go through. Shaw returns to Paul's words that the Lord will deliver him from every evil work and preserve him unto his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory forever. He contrasts a reborn Christian with someone he calls a ritualistic, traditional Christian who believes signing a card or inheriting family belief is enough, insisting true faith is a personal relationship in which the Lord lives within the believer's heart, and that believers belong to a different kingdom than the nations and cultures around them.

Trust No Man, Fight Self-Pity
Shaw tells listeners to shout back at Satan's attacks of bitterness, hatred, or lust that the Lord shall deliver them from every evil work and preserve them to his heavenly kingdom. He recalls that Paul was abandoned by his friend Demas and harmed by Alexander, yet the Lord stood with him regardless, and he urges listeners never to fully trust any man, no matter how long they have known him or how good he seems, since none of us have arrived. Whatever trial a listener faces, whether cancer, disease, or hardship, Shaw tells them to cast it out in the name of Jesus, put up a shield of faith against evil words, and repent of known sins without giving the trial itself a name or letting it become an idol. He warns that self-pity focuses only on self, and that life and death are in the power of the tongue, so believers must guard their words.

The Apostles' Example and Closing Contact
Shaw reminds listeners that Paul was left utterly alone with only pen and parchment, asking Timothy to bring him a cloak because no one else would. He points to John the Baptist living in the wilderness on locusts and wild honey, and to the apostles' fates, Peter hung upside down, Andrew cut into quarters, and John boiled in oil, as proof the world system hates Christians. Shaw closes by urging listeners to set their sights on things above rather than on their trials, since Christians belong to a different kingdom entirely, and he pronounces a blessing and amen over the broadcast. The announcer returns to close the program, repeating the ministry's website, a post office box number in Vero Beach, Florida, and a phone number given twice for emphasis, inviting listeners back for another broadcast and pointing them to Brother Jim's YouTube page for additional messages.

Tony Alamo

Ep80 How to have God's life living in you part 178

Polygamy, the Book of Jasher, and Seducing Spirits in the Last Days

World Pastor Tony Alamo opens program 280 of How to Have God's Life Living in You with teaching on polygamy, child-marriage customs drawn from the Book of Jasher, and warnings about seducing spirits in the last days, while co-host Sharon Alamo reads scripture, ministry testimonials, and the Christmas story from Luke.

Program 280 Opens With Warnings Of Coming Wrath
World Pastor Tony Alamo opens program 280, part 178 of his series How to Have God's Life Living in You, reminding listeners that tapes, CDs, Bibles, and his literature are free of charge when finances are short, with postage and handling covered by the ministry. He says co-host Sharon will give several ways to order copies at the end of the hour, and he asks those with means to pledge toward radio broadcasts and newspaper ads so the gospel can reach more homes. Alamo tells listeners the Lord has informed him that once the hundred forty-four thousandth Jew is saved, the wrath of God will pour out on the earth in rapid, unannounced plagues, striking like a thief in the night. He warns that only what is done for the Lord in this life will count at the judgment, urging listeners not to hoard millions or billions while souls remain unreached.

A Teaching On Polygamy And A Cash Challenge
Alamo turns to a teaching that having more than one wife is sometimes ordained by the Lord, though he stresses not everyone is called to it, citing God giving David several wives in the Old Testament and saying that if more had been needed, the Lord would have provided them. He insists there is no condemnation in scripture for a wife the Lord gives, and offers a cash challenge, fifty thousand dollars, raised later in the program to one hundred thousand dollars, to anyone who can find a verse in the Old or New Testament, King James Version, declaring that no polygamist shall enter the kingdom of heaven. He says he knows people have gone to prison for acting on something he believes God directed, and insists Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He asks Sharon to read First Timothy on seducing spirits so listeners can hear scripture he says the government and media twist.

Seducing Spirits, Abortion Statistics, And School Condoms
Sharon reads First Timothy four, verses one through three, on seducing spirits and doctrines of devils that forbid marriage in the latter times, and Alamo calls this a prophecy being fulfilled by a government and media he brands the Antichrist. He has Sharon cite abortion figures, eighty-eight thousand, nine hundred eighty-one in New York City in 2005 and ninety-one thousand, six hundred seventy-three the year before, adding that forty-four percent of births occur outside marriage and that schools hand out a million and a half condoms a month to pre-teens and teenagers. Alamo argues the government stimulates casual sex while branding marriage, which he calls scriptural and sinless, as the real evil, pointing to young women who have reached puberty as ready for marriage. He says he preaches this not from personal interest but because the Lord keeps pressing him to speak against laws that imprison people for what he believes scripture allows.

The Book Of Jasher And Rebekah's Marriage At Ten
Alamo tells listeners the Catholic Church removed books from the Bible, including the Book of Jasher, the books of Enoch, Clement, and Wisdom, which he offers free to anyone who cannot afford them. He has Sharon read Joshua ten and Second Samuel one, both referencing the lost book of Jasher, then turns to its account of Rebekah, said to be ten years old when she married Isaac, who was forty. Alamo argues puberty, not a fixed age, marks readiness for marriage, citing Mary's espousal to Joseph around age ten or eleven under Middle Eastern custom described in a New York Sun article dated December 21, 2006. He criticizes Martin Luther's description of the Vatican as a sewer of corruption and insists the hierarchy, not ordinary Catholics, perpetuates what he calls Antichrist teaching. He says former Catholics make up more than two-thirds of his own congregation, and that true believers of any background belong to one body in Christ.

A Jericho Song And Four Listener Testimonies
Alamo sings Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho with J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, then teaches that the Lord is about to pour out plagues once the last of the hundred forty-four thousand Jews are sealed, after which he says there will be no more salvation and the earth becomes a nightmare. He turns to listener testimonials read by Sharon: a Los Angeles woman whose sister got saved and received the baptism of the Holy Spirit after reading the tract Five Steps to Salvation during a divorce; a man named Dante who says tongues came to him days after his salvation at the Tony Alamo Christian Church and who credits the same Holy Spirit with later reaching his sister; a Fort Smith, Arkansas account of a woman who dreamed the name Tony Alamo before receiving a gospel tract; and a Fullerton, California woman named Mary who found Alamo's article in the Orange County Herald while studying Ezekiel thirty-seven.

Luke's Nativity, David's Rebuke, And A Closing Prayer
Sharon reads the second chapter of Luke describing Caesar Augustus's decree, the journey to Bethlehem, the manger, the shepherds, and the presentation of the infant Jesus in the temple before Simeon, while Alamo comments line by line on the espousal customs behind Joseph and Mary's marriage, drawing on George M. Lamsa's Idioms in the Bible Explained. He warns Hulk Hogan by name against letting his daughter date, calling courtship unscriptural and dangerous. Before closing, Alamo has Sharon read Second Samuel twelve, where the prophet Nathan tells David, who had taken another man's wife, that the Lord himself had given David his master's wives and daughters, arguing this proves plural marriage can come from God for those the Lord specifically chooses. Alamo leads a spoken sinner's prayer confessing Jesus Christ as the Son of the living God, and Sharon gives the ministry's website, Texarkana post office box, phone, and fax numbers before Alamo closes the hour singing Where the Healing Waters Flow with J.D. Sumner and the Stamps.

The Care Compass

Elder Law, Estate Planning, and Protecting Aging Parents from Scams with Paul Schlegel

Dame Nicole Brandon sits down with Prescott, Arizona attorney Paul Schlegel of Burnham Law to talk through elder law, estate planning, grandparent guardianship, and the scams that target aging parents.

Walking Into Care Compass With A Hero
Dame Nicole Brandon opens The Care Compass by welcoming listeners back and thanking them for journeying with her through the hardest parts of caregiving. She reports on an extraordinary week in Prescott, Arizona, where the city hosted the Walk to End Alzheimer's and a Senior Health Fair, events she says show families rallying around each other with love and support. Nicole tells listeners she rarely calls anyone a hero, but today's guest is one of the few she does. She introduces Paul Schlegel, an attorney with Burnham Law, and explains why families so often avoid thinking about the law even though life inevitably brings legal circumstances into the picture. Nicole recalls her own most vulnerable moment, saying Paul never made her feel wrong for her fears, and that his ability to listen and then translate her circumstances into real legal solutions is what convinces her he belongs on the show today.

Why Families Must Plan Ahead
Paul Schlegel explains that families practicing elder law rarely plan ahead, and that he has personally witnessed siblings fight bitterly after parents pass away without estate planning documents in place, disputes that can poison relationships for the rest of their lives. He shares that his own mother is ninety and his father ninety-three, both still living independently in Colorado, and that he and his siblings sat down together to plan their parents' estate so everyone already understands what will happen and there is no tension waiting ahead. Paul then recalls acting as personal representative and power of attorney for an elderly couple living in an RV with no children nearby. When the husband broke his hip during the early days of COVID and never recovered, Paul found himself arranging around-the-clock care for the widow, who had dementia, and sometimes spending the night with her himself when no caretaker was available, an experience that deepened his appreciation for people living with dementia and Alzheimer's.

Guardianship, Scams, And A Family's Close Call
Nicole asks about grandparents who suddenly become guardians for grandchildren, and Paul explains that courts typically grant permanent guardianship, or sometimes adoption, and he urges grandparents in that position to put estate planning documents in place naming a future guardian for the children. He describes his own contract doing dependency work for the county, representing both parents and children in abuse and neglect cases, visiting foster placements, and growing genuinely attached to the children he represents over cases that can stretch for years. Nicole shares that her mother's RAZ Mobility Phone, which only dials pre-programmed family members, protects her from scammers targeting people with Alzheimer's. Paul then tells his own story: a caller claiming to be an attorney convinced his parents that their grandson had been in an accident and needed thirteen thousand dollars in cash to avoid jail. His parents withdrew the money before calling Paul, who confirmed his son was safe at home, and his parents returned the cash and reported the attempted scam to police.

A Career From Classrooms To Courtrooms
Paul describes family law as a broad umbrella covering divorce, modification of parenting plans, and enforcement of child support and spousal support, distinct from probate law, which handles wills and powers of attorney. He explains that Arizona requires a parenting class for anyone going through a divorce involving children, a class he taught for the county for about ten years, always stressing that courts decide custody based on the best interests of the child rather than either parent. Nicole asks about grandparents during divorce, and Paul notes Arizona has a grandparent's rights statute allowing petitions for visitation time. He traces his own path from teaching middle school and working summers as a wrangler leading horse pack trips, into a master's degree and an unfinished doctorate in Latin American history at Northern Arizona University, and finally into law school after his own difficult divorce left him determined to understand the legal system. He later served as a city court judge for eleven and a half years.

Finding The Right Attorney And Cherishing Time
Paul offers practical advice for anyone nervous about calling a lawyer: ask around, since attorneys live and die by reputation, and look for someone compassionate rather than someone chasing money. He clarifies that probate attorneys, not family lawyers, handle wills, living wills, and powers of attorney, so families should match the right specialist to the right need. Nicole shares that her own parents have been married sixty-seven years, and Paul answers that his parents will celebrate their seventy-second anniversary on November fourth, with the whole family traveling to Colorado for Thanksgiving. He admits his father now repeats old stories, but says he enjoys hearing them anyway, because the time together is teaching him things about his parents' lives he never fully understood before. His advice to listeners is simple: spend as much time with loved ones as possible, because life is short, and he says he is grateful his own parents involved their children in estate planning so nothing is left uncertain.

Closing Thoughts On Fraud And Family Reunion
Nearing the close of the hour, Paul returns to the subject of elder fraud, saying it troubles him deeply how often isolated elderly people are financially exploited by someone who slowly works into their lives, and he urges listeners to stay close to aging relatives and treat new, too-helpful acquaintances as a warning sign. Nicole shares a personal update, telling listeners her parents have been reunited after time apart, describing her father's arm wrapped around her mother and his wish, if reincarnation exists, to come back as his own father. She reminds listeners that caregiving requires caring for themselves too, resting, laughing, and leaving the house, and promises that any question they send in will be answered, with Paul invited back if needed. Paul closes by giving his contact information once more, Burnham Law at 136 Grove Avenue in Prescott, Arizona, and Nicole thanks him warmly for his wisdom, his compassion, and his willingness to walk alongside families through difficult legal and emotional terrain.

The Music Hustle with Ramell Douglas

Four-Phase Release Strategy, Royalties, and Protecting Your Paperwork

Host Ramell Douglas flies solo this week, walking independent artists through a four-phase release-day strategy and breaking down the business side of the industry, from ASCAP, BMI, SoundExchange and the MLC to split sheets and work-for-hire contracts.

Opening The Hustle With A Release-Strategy Lesson
Ramell Douglas opens this solo episode of The Music Hustle by promising listeners both the grind and the business side of the industry. He tells artists that releasing music without a plan is a mistake, arguing that a true rollout must be treated as a multi-campaign effort rather than a single day of uploading to a distributor and walking away. Douglas explains that hip hop culture now runs on rhythm, lyrical bars, community commentary, and short-form video momentum, so every clip posted before a release should serve a larger narrative instead of standing alone. He frames the hour as a structured walk through four phases of a release calendar, starting six weeks before a track drops, and reminds listeners they can call in live between six and seven Eastern time with questions about building a release around real strategy instead of guesswork.

Phase One And Two: Locking Assets And Building Content
Douglas lays out Phase One, set-up and infrastructure, which begins six weeks before release day. He tells artists to lock in the master audio, final mix, cover art, press photos, lyric sheets, split sheets, and producer agreements into one organized shared drive, then upload the track to a digital distributor at least four weeks out so ISRC codes and metadata are generated cleanly rather than rushed. He warns that rushed metadata breaks royalty tracking down the line. Moving into Phase Two, the content factory, four weeks out, he describes choosing an anchor visual, whether a full music video, a live performance clip, or a studio breakdown, based on the song and the audience it targets. He then explains the content butchery: filming fifteen to twenty-five short pieces of micro content, pulling the catchiest bars and hooks, and building anticipation with teaser drops, behind-the-scenes clips, and open-verse challenges well before the track ever drops.

Phase Three And Four: Press, Radio, And The Blitz
Two weeks from release, Douglas moves into Phase Three, media, press, and radio outreach, telling artists to build an electronic press kit with a song breakdown and full metadata, then pitch it to independent blogs, playlist curators, mixshow DJs, and terrestrial stations, pressing physical CDs when an agency is not handling that work. He stresses persistence, saying artists must follow up rather than assume anyone calls back on their own. He also warns against playlist curators who use bots, saying F1MG never touches that practice because it can get a catalog pulled from platforms entirely. Phase Four, launch day and the two-week blitz, calls for activating every channel at once, updating social profiles and streaming avatars to match the single, and posting daily short-form videos with native audio for fourteen straight days to keep the algorithm engaged. Douglas notes that breaking a record typically takes six to eight months of sustained momentum and consistent audience engagement.

Community Fanbases And A Shout-Out To Conan
Douglas pivots from the calendar to the long game, arguing that a one-hit wonder fades while an artist who builds a real community keeps earning for years. He points to Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Nas, KRS-One, and Wu-Tang Clan as examples of acts whose longevity rests on consistency and a fanbase that stays engaged even during quiet stretches between headlines. He urges artists to reply to comments, thank every blog and curator who shares their music, and push listeners toward an email list for long-term retention, alongside old-school tactics like posters with scannable links and vinyl or CD souvenirs that are making a comeback for independent acts. Douglas then teases an upcoming F1MG release, a track called Same Place from an artist he names as Conan, describing it as a raw, real account of coming up from Watts, California, built on its own strategy that he says works because Conan has a tight community already backing him.

The Paperwork Behind The Music: ASCAP, BMI And MLC
Douglas shifts into the legal and financial side of the business, walking through copyright registration with the US Copyright Office, explaining that artists should file separately for the Performing Arts share covering lyrics and melody and the Sound Recording share covering the master. He tells listeners to join a performing rights organization, ASCAP or BMI, to collect royalties whenever a song airs on terrestrial radio, television, streaming, or live venues, and to register as both songwriter and publisher so they can claim one hundred percent of available royalties rather than leaving a share on the table. He adds that SoundExchange collects digital performance royalties from satellite radio and internet streaming, while the Mechanical Licensing Collective, or MLC, gathers the mechanical royalties generated on services like Spotify and Apple Music. Douglas stresses that properly connected metadata is what determines whether an artist actually gets paid across every one of these revenue streams.

Split Sheets, Contracts, And A Closing Charge
Douglas closes out the lesson with split sheets, telling artists that anyone who collaborates with a co-writer, producer, or featured artist must sign one immediately to set exact ownership percentages, noting that a producer keeps rights to a beat even after an artist buys it. He recommends work-for-hire agreements for simple paid services and warns listeners to read every beat license carefully, since some cap free distribution at a set number of streams before royalties shift to the license holder. Douglas urges young artists to slow down and fully understand any contract before signing, and to reach out to The Music Hustle with questions rather than guess. He ends the show with a motivational charge about staying grounded, avoiding unnecessary associations, and putting in consistent work rather than waiting for opportunity to arrive, thanking BBS Radio TV and inviting listeners of every genre to tap into F1MG before an announcer signs him off the air.

Junk Refund Show with Alan Cook

Cast Iron Tubs, Groupon Hauls, and Cheap Flights Inside the Junk Refund Business

Host Alan Cook broadcasts live from a stalled tub pickup in McLean, Virginia, then narrates a day of Groupon jobs, scrap metal runs, and a costly workshop accident while riding the Beltway between stops, closing with his tricks for flying almost anywhere for under fifty dollars.

Live From McLean: The Cast Iron Tub Job
Alan Cook opens the show broadcasting live from McLean, Virginia, where he and his helper June have pulled up to haul away a roughly 300-pound cast iron tub. Cook jokes about rigging earbuds so he can keep talking while wrestling the heavy tub, warning listeners the show might be a short one if it is still upstairs. When they reach the site, the contractor explains the tub is not quite ready, maybe forty minutes more, so Cook agrees to swing back later and heads off to plan B instead. Riding along in traffic afterward, he uses the moment to explain the four things his company does with every load it hauls: junking true trash, recycling metal and wire, donating usable goods for a receipt, and selling anything worth selling, with proceeds split back to the customer, a practice he says sets 1-800-Junk-Refund apart from ordinary junk haulers.

Groupon Economics and a Railing Job's Sad Backstory
Cook details his company's decade-long run on Groupon, where a quarter-truckload of junk removal priced at $229 sells for $99, netting the business roughly sixty percent after Groupon's cut. He cites around 500 reviews and a 4.8 rating, a 96 to 97 percent satisfaction score he calls the highest of any junk removal company on the platform. He recounts that morning's Groupon job at a second-floor apartment, where he and June tossed clothing bags and lowered unplugged lamps by their cords over a railing to speed things along, earning extra loads at $175 and $150 paid by Venmo. The backstory turns somber: the unit belonged to a woman who had just moved up from Florida after her husband died, only to pass away herself three weeks later, a reminder, Cook says, that junk removal often means stepping into people's lives at emotional turning points.

Scrap Metal, Craigslist Leads, and a Costly Collision
Cook explains how free Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace scrap-metal pickups double as marketing, since customers who get a free haul-away often call back later for paid junk removal at a twenty percent discount. He breaks down scrap pricing, roughly six cents a pound for plain metal versus twenty-three cents for dirty aluminum, and describes repeat visits to a Fairfax, Virginia collector who has spent years amassing lawn mower engines, carburetors, and file cabinets full of small-engine parts. The visit turns dramatic when Cook recalls that the same man, warned more than once to lower an old rusted commercial fan perched precariously above head height, instead walked into its sharp metal frame, gashing his scalp open and spending much of the day in the emergency room. Cook calls it a cautionary tale about clearing hazards before they clear you, even as the crew keeps hauling away truckloads of the man's metal collection.

Nancy's Downsizing Job and an Advance-Payment Discount
Cook describes a referral from Olney, Maryland realtor Karen Rawlings to a client named Nancy, who is downsizing from a thirty-year family home into a two-bedroom condo. He quotes the job at $495, then applies the standard realtor-referral discount down to $450, with another $50 off if Nancy pays before the crew arrives. Her husband balks at paying in advance, a hesitation Cook says he understands even though out-of-town clients wire full payment sight unseen all the time. The family agrees to the discounted rate, Venmoing $400 ahead of the job, and adds an extra twin bed frame and a sofa bound for her son's basement apartment. The job wraps smoothly, with Nancy handing over a hundred-dollar tip for the couch and her son kicking in another hundred for hauling furniture up and down tricky basement stairs, leaving everyone satisfied.

Building the Business With AI Mailing Lists
Still stuck in Beltway traffic, Cook credits BBS Radio's use of artificial intelligence for inspiring him to try Microsoft Copilot in his own business. He describes building a spreadsheet of roughly 800 real estate offices around Washington, D.C., each averaging twelve and a half agents, for postcard mailings aimed at generating whole-home cleanout referrals. A second database lists about 800 area gas stations offered free scrap-metal pickups in exchange for future junk-removal discounts. He recounts the mailings already paying off, with calls from an Annapolis gas station owner and a Burke, Virginia car wash yielding free metal pickups, one of which led to a follow-up job clearing barrels and sheet metal from a business in Lanham, Maryland. Cook frames the AI-built lists as a low-cost way to keep generating both scrap income and new long-term customers.

Frontier Flights, the GoWild Pass, and the Upside App
Cook closes the show with his favorite side topic, cheap travel. He explains Frontier Airlines' annual GoWild Pass, which lets him fly round trip to Salt Lake City for about fifty dollars, staying free on hotel points and still making it home in time for work Monday morning. He describes similarly inexpensive flights to Orlando, Atlanta, and even El Salvador, arguing that modern mobility lets him stay close to family without living nearby. He then plugs the free Upside app, which has paid him more than $1,200 in cash back on gas, groceries, and restaurant visits using his personal promo code, DS9PW. Reflecting on the morning's job for a woman who passed away weeks after downsizing into a condo, Cook urges listeners to enjoy life while they can, travel more, and keep working toward decluttering both their homes and their lives.
