Where Do We Go From Here?
No surprise here…I have NO idea what the future holds for any of us. The optimist in me says “Hang in there. Things WILL get better.” The world has been through other, at the time equally daunting, challenges and somehow … Continue reading
Patience…A Virtue That Must Be Nurtured
