Burnsland Podcast

Do we think of ourselves as more important than we should? Or do we give others more importance than we should? Importance is important, but how important?

For the past two years, the Burnsland website posts have had a theme of Love One Another in 2024 and Blessings in 2025. Steve presents some more insight into those themes.

Patience is turning into a lost art form. We are always in such a hurry to get everything immediately. But life is better if you slow down a little, even if you have to wait for some things.

Following up on the previous episode looking at how time flies, this episode includes memories of high school graduation and the years that followed, leading up to where we are now.

Time flies right on by, so don't miss it. Here are a few ways to help keep track of all that has happened.

We have had lots of things going on lately, which in some ways makes us miss the slower times of last year. And it makes us look forward to downtime when we can find it.

There are times when it is not appropriate to laugh, no matter how funny something might be. Here are a few stories of times when it was difficult not to laugh.

We have been spending more time at home due to the pandemic, and it has been good. Plus, what makes somewhere a home?

A fun story from a long-ago trip to Walt Disney World is also a reminder that our actions have consequences, some of which we might not have ever thought of.

A story from way back in the old days at church camp is a reminder of how to deal with unexpected obstacles that might knock you down.

Everything seems to be changing right now. But actually, everything is always changing. That is not always bad if you know how to handle it.

In all the chaos and noise of the world, it is sometimes good to hear a simple message of love. Or to be the one to share that message.

During this time of uncertainty, you have two choices. You can worry about the future, or you can prepare as best as possible and enjoy what comes your way!

Sometimes it takes a little push to be creative and look at things in a new way. The current times have definitely provided that push!

During this time of crisis, it is important to keep in touch with each other and help those with needs or ask for help if you have needs. No matter what situation you are in, reach out to others.

A message that is good to hear at any time, but is especially important now, is to love more and complain less. Things might not be how we want them to be, but complaining won't make as much of a difference as loving will.

Sometimes, the little things make a big difference. An act of love and kindness does not have to be anything big. It can be something small, even as small as a dollar.

In case you haven't noticed, over the years television has become a major part of our lives. Steve talks about his memories of watching television growing up, along with a few stories of television productions.
