James Allen, the noted British philosophical writer was known for many useful inspirational quotes; “Ask as If”, “Right thought is mastery., “Circumstances do not make the man/woman, they reveal him/her”.
We are taught to take command and change the things we can control. During these unique times it is our duty and privilege to be role models for those we Love. What more influential and noble act can we perform than to find Hope in these times and share that Hope with everyone who will listen.
I give my attention to people of Hope. As I have stated here before that these are what Mr. Rogers Mom called the HELPERS.
I want to pass along one of those examples that my Son-in-law, who is also a Caring Grandparent, shared today.
