Power and money are the fruits of life…
But family and friends are roots of life…
We can manage without fruits, but we cannot stand without roots.
To all of my dear friends and readers of my Blogs I express my deep appreciation for the love, kind thoughts and words of friendship you have shared with me as you responded to my various writings over the past year..
This past year, which is slowly coming to a close has seen our country go through some challenging social, economic times but we must not forget that we have also have great accomplishments as well. Yes, life is filled with Happiness and Joy-pain and suffering, but we must always remain optimistic.
As we approach the year 2016 let us dedicate ourselves to achieving the following important goals:
1. Working diligently to strengthening our family and social relationships so that as we travel the journey of life it will be filled with love and joy.
2. Keeping our eyes and minds open to the wonderful opportunities that exist for persons of all ages so that the journey ends happily.
3. Teaching the young members of our families the true value of life and how to plan and live it in a way that will optimize their success along the way.
4. Reaching out to our neighbors, of whatever creed, color, religious affiliation or economic status in such a way as to demonstrate our love, compassion and concern for their welfare, as well..
My cousin Connie Williams sent me the following most inspiring quotation which I want to share with you:
“What is worse than losing your Eyesight?”
“Losing your Vision”
As we watch with disbelief the events of this past month, let us ever be mindful that the answer to peace and joy is for all decent persons to have the vision and the desire to work both individually and together so that the coming days of our lives leaves a joyous legacy for those who follow us.
