We’re living in/through a tough chapter in our national history. Challenging for each of us, no matter our circumstances. However, we’re seeing some hopeful signs as a critical mass of our fellow citizens awaken to join in reclaiming this Country… honoring the values that respect our best abilities and intentions. Good intentions won’t suffice. We’ll need to be energized and inspired to rise to our occasion. Read on and join me as I share sources of inspiration that make a difference in my life. Hopefully, you’ll find a gem or two that resonate with you…ENJOY!

I’m not much for New Year resolutions, but this seems like a great time to aspire for better. We dropped our guard and allowed a hostile takeover of our government. Now, it’s beyond time for us to reclaim this legacy of Democracy. I’m encouraged that there are many signs that the tide is turning. I’m ready to work with each of you to realize more effective stewardship of this place we call home.
