CINNAMINSON, NJ, November 25, 2011 (Press-News.org) Author and CEO of Sunray Group, Timothy Hedrick returns with a new anthology of personal essays, A Collection of Thoughts (121 pp., Infinity Publishing, $10.95). The book builds on the success of Hedrick's 2009 release, A Fulfilled Life, with a series of personal essays that both entertain and inspire.
Hedrick's style is poetic, yet accessible, using everyday language and observations to explore the deeper questions of life in the 2000s. With a love of nature and a gift for unexpected twists, Hedrick offers no clear-cut answers to the questions he poses. Instead, Tim sets the stage for his readers and inspires them to think, imagine and grow.
"Today, more than at any time I can recall, we are surrounded by conflict, stress and even fear. We find it in our families, our communities, our country and the world at large, says Hedrick. With A Collection of Thoughts, I wanted to remind people of the beauty and wonder that surrounds us in our everyday thoughts, travels and experiences. My hope is that through my observations, readers will be inspired to rediscover the simple pleasures and surprises in their own lives.
The concept for the book came to Tim on a beautiful fall day during a drive through the scenic back roads of southeastern Pennsylvania. He began with a series of essays based on his own life experiences that were regularly posted on the Sunray Group web site. Soon he was receiving ideas from friends and fans that became the inspiration for many of the book's subsequent essays.
"In many ways, I consider A Collection of Thoughts to be a collaboration between myself and my audience, said Hedrick. I hope they enjoy what I have created with them... and for them." A Collection of Thoughts is currently available on Amazon.com.

Florida State Legislators Attempt Texting and Driving Ban One More Time
Despite being in the Southeast, some may regard the state of Florida as The Wild West of distracted driving. Many states have bans on texting and handheld phone use while behind the wheel, but Florida has no such laws on distracted driving. As a result Florida drivers are free to text and use their cellphones on the road. Some may even say that Florida drivers are also free to endanger themselves and others on the road.
As the danger of distracted driving becomes more recognized, Florida's lack ...

Mitigating the Financial Impact of Late-in-Life Divorce
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. divorce rate in 2009 was 3.5 divorces per 1,000 people. Taken by itself, this data reveals that the U.S. divorce rate has slowly decreased in the past few years. However, the data may be skewed by the recent recession -- many would-be divorced couples have remained married for the financial benefits it provides.

Married couples who have been married most of their lives generally settle into retirement ...

The hope is that by focusing attention on these driver distractions, the number of accidents on the nation's highways will fall.
Distracted driving is a key concern for motorcyclists. After all, they have far less protection ...

At a young age children rely on their parents for nearly everything they need, and they also begin to cultivate lifelong bonds with any siblings they may have. As they grow they form friendships with neighborhood children, classmates, as well as kids on their sports teams or any other organization they might be part of.
Each one of these relationships is essential to a child's growth and development, but one important relationship is ...

How to Spot When an Aging Loved One Needs Help
Asking for help is never easy, especially for an aging loved one used to being self-reliant. Yet as seniors grow further into their golden years, they may need a great deal of help keeping up with day-to-day tasks. But it's not uncommon for seniors to let basic needs go entirely unmet before they tell another person that they're no longer able and need help.
How do you help in such a case? It's important to avoid putting an elderly person on the defensive. "Elder Care Made Easier" author Marion Somers advises ...
