Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong doing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.

Contrary to popular opinion, love is not just a feeling or emotion. Love requires action. Consider what 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 says about love:

February is here and that means love is in the air! The best thing about love is sharing it with someone else, whether it be your spouse, kids, grandchildren or friends.

LIFE HACKS
MAKE LIFE EASIER LOVE
Got a stuck zipper? Rub it with the tip of a graphite pencil and it will work again. Rewire your brain to be happy by simply recalling three things for which you’re grateful each day, for twenty-one days. Studying or working in your room? Keep your shoes on. Your mind associates having your shoes on with being busy.
your
Need to glue something together? Thistothat.com will show you the best adhesive to use when gluing two different materials together.
Too much stress causes the human brain to freeze and shut down temporarily. Women are more influenced by how a man smells, than how he looks. So, men, choose your fragrance wisely.
Always feel tired even after getting a good, long sleep? You’re probably dehydrated. Drink some water right when you wake up. Not only has sex been proven to be good for your emotional health, but it can also unblock a stuffy nose, help combat asthma, and relieve symptoms of hay fever.
The darker the color of the alcohol you’re drinking, the worse your hangover will be. Looking for something? Scan right to left with your eyes. You’ll notice more since your brain isn’t used to reading that way.

INSPIRE
EMBRACE LIFE
Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain... To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices. Today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it. —Kevyn Aucoin
Vulnerability is the essence of romance. It’s the art of being uncalculated, the willingness to look foolish, the courage to say, “This is me, and I’m interested in you enough to show you my flaws with the hope that you may embrace me for all that I am but, more important, all that I am not.”
Love who you are, embrace who you are. Love yourself. When you love yourself, people can kind of pick up on that. They can see confidence, they can see self-esteem, and naturally, people gravitate towards you.
—Ashton Kutcher
Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they’re making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that’s the difference.
—Lilly Singh

LOVE
CREATIVE DATES Shake things up and have fun
Experts say, falling in love is easy, but staying in love is hard. Research indicates couples who spend time cultivating their relationship are healthier, happier and more vibrant than those who don’t. If you’re in a rut, try these ideas out to light a spark in your relationship.
Sing a Song
If one of you knows how to play piano or guitar—or any other instrument— sing through your favorite songs together. Grab a bottle of wine and make it an athome karaoke bar.
Hit Up the Farmers’ Market
And then see what sort of fresh dinner you can make with those ingredients.
Go to a Jazz Club
Dress up in your finest and head to a live jazz show, drink some whiskey (or your choice of beverage), and get transported to what will feel like another era.
Play Games
Whether its chess, cards, Connect4 or Uno, it’s fun to get a little competitive. Competition can be sexy, right?
Get Some Ice Cream
Ice cream is sweet and so is love, so why reserve dessert only for dinner time? Anytime is a great time for sharing a tasty treat together.
Take a Dance Class
Learn some sweet moves and then go tear up the dance floor together. Put what you’ve learned to good use, again and again.
Go to a Street Fair
Life is extra sweet when the food is really cheap! It’s always fun to discover new and interesting types of foods and vendors with someone special.
Go Bowling
Get your best retro outfit on (or not) and roll your way to a score—literally.
Become Amateur Photographers
Make it your mission to start taking photos of all the things you see. Go on a car ride and find some great new places to shoot.
See a Comedy Show
You can see your favorite comedian, or check out some new names from the roster of up-and-comers—you never know if you’ll be seeing the next rising star!

HOLLYWOOD HAPPENINGS Michael Keaton finally revealed why he refused to play Batman again after his success in 1989’s “Batman” (with a $411.6 million gross) and “Batman Returns” (with a $267 million gross). The latter two films were directed by Tim Burton and Keaton felt Burton’s direction allowed a more campy film with a darker feel.

IN SURPRISE
Granite & Flooring Warehouse
When the late Joel Schumacher signed on to direct Keaton’s third “Batman” film, Keaton felt he “could no longer play Batman if the tone was moving away from Batman’s dark nature, it was always about Bruce Wayne to me.” After re-creating Adrian Toomes/Vulture in “Spiderman: Homecoming,” and appearing in “Morbius” (January 29), he’ll again become Batman/Bruce Wayne in “The Flash” November 4, but here’s the catch, in this version Batman/ Bruce Wayne hails from an alternate universe, while Ben Affleck plays Batman/Bruce Wayne from the timeline of “The Flash” and the upcoming “Batgirl.”

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.” Sue Royer Director

GROWTH
You can transform your story!
Timothy Wilson, Ph.D. says, “Our experience of the world is shaped by the stories we tell ourselves and our interpretations of it, and these stories can often become so distorted and destructive that they completely hinder our ability to live balanced, purposeful, happy lives. So the key to personal transformation is story transformation,” he says.
CHANGE YOUR STORY Everyone has a story. Our story contains countless pieces of information, some random and insignificant, others full of meaning. Although the facts of our history are immutable, the way we react to them and weave them into our personal narrative is not. Often our stories are connected to events from our past. Positive chapters such as a happy childhood, successful career trajectory or healthy relationship can impact our personal stories in an inspiring and uplifting way. These happy events can make us more kind, provide us a more positive outlook, and even improve our self-esteem. On the other hand, negative life events such as trauma, addiction, illness, divorce, etc., can impact our story in a negative way. These often leave us feeling isolated, depressed and anxious. They affect how we deal with people and circumstances later in life.
30
THE GRAND SEASON • FEBRUARY 2022
Step 1: Assess who you are.
The first step in rewriting your story is to assess who you are, how you have been feeling and behaving, and what circumstances have impacted your life. Ask yourself, “What is my story and what would I like to change about it?” Take time to truly figure out who you are, what is missing, what needs to be improved and how you want to be in the future.
Step 2: Rewrite and revise as you go along.
The second step is to take time out to remind yourself that you can take steps to change your behaviors and life. When we forget we have this power, we tend to feel stuck. When we remember we have the power to change the trajectory of our narrative, we feel strong, hopeful and happier overall. WWW.THEGRANDSEASON.COM

IF YOU HAVE MEDICARE QUESTIONS. . . WE HAVE ANSWERS!
PAWS CORNER
Q: Lately it’s been nearly impossible to find my dog’s favorite dry food. My supply is running low. Any suggestions for supplementing my dog’s nutrition with something else until his favorite is back in stock? A: Supplementing will help stretch his dry food supply. I recommend you first contact his vet to figure out ways to continue providing the nutrients recommended to keep him healthy. Vets can offer advice on a good balance of pet foods to give him, as well as ways to entice your dog to eat if he’s picky. Consider adding freshly cooked ingredients to his dinner dish, such as beef or boneless chicken thighs—baked or braised, with no savory elements added like onions or black pepper. Add calories and more nutrients by mixing in steamed rice, peas and carrots. Cool the food before putting it into his dish. Many pet owners will bulkprepare fresh food once per week and freeze all but the first couple of days’ servings.

Sometimes saving money requires hard work and intense discipline. And we applaud those that are fighting hard to pay off debt or build up their savings. But sometimes saving money can be easy! Here’s a list of super simple, easy-to-implement ways you can start saving money right now. Don’t worry—just because they’re simple and easy doesn’t mean they won’t have big impact, especially over time.
1. Download apps for savings.
Look for apps to any stores you frequent. It shouldn’t cost anything and with minimal effort you can save a lot! The process may differ from store to store.
2. Purchase used goods at a thrift store or online.
For those things you need but don’t need to buy new, visit Goodwill, or check websites like Amazon, Craigslist, or eBay—each offer thousands of used items in good condition at great prices.
3. Evaluate your TV choices.
Saving money doesn’t have to be difficult
Do your research on comparable prices and then call up your cable company to negotiate your monthly fee. Or you could join the millions of other Americans who’ve said goodbye to cable in favor of streaming options like Netflix, Amazon Prime and others.
4. Buy generic instead of name brand.
Why not consider the cheaper option whenever possible? Generic medications, trash bags, paper towels, baking ingredients, and even beauty and bath products are a good starting point.

VETERANS POST
The Department of Veteran’s Affairs has been battling COVID-19 from the very beginning of the pandemic. The recently released Coronavirus Disease 2019 Response Report Annex B tells just how they’ve done. The facts are impressive. So far they’ve vaccinated 4.3 million people. The VA was also the first federal agency to issue a mandate requiring all VA employees who work in health care to be vaccinated. They beefed up telehealth for veterans at home and those who live in rural areas. This resulted in 2,500% increase of telehealth care visits. The VA has processed between 70,000 and 90,000 COVID tests per week, and published over 300 COVID studies, including a comparison between the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, as well as vaccination rates between minorities and white patients. The VA even pulled together pulmonary experts to study long COVID, the long-term symptoms after a COVID infection. To see findings, visit www.publichealth. va.gov/n-coronavirus/ COVID_19_Response_ Reports.asp. WWW.THEGRANDSEASON.COM
