Last week was a tough week — There is so much to worry about; COVID 19 Elections are still not finalized — it used to be that the American people would vote eight years democrat the next eight years republican with exceptions, of course. This kept everything in balance. But this has changed dramatically in the last 20 years.

Everyone is born with the desire to be happy. However, so many experience the opposite and have no idea where and how to find that source of happiness.

My husband and I are retired now and live a relatively comfortable life in Santiago, Dominican Republic. We don’t have to worry about our lives.

However, every time I think of our beautiful grandchildren, my chest tightens, and I cannot help but wonder what kind of life they will have? Hopefully, they will grow up in a peaceful world.

Changes are happening ever more rapidly. How can anyone keep up?

It is more important than ever to get rooted or anchored in something permanent, while life pushes us around. No one can escape that. How can we make sure that our children, grandchildren will develop the strength, confidence, and resilience to navigate life successfully?
