Everyone needs to know how to get along with each other. Conversations bring opportunities to listen and learn. So listen and try to understand.

Enjoy life, your family, and associates. Recognize the beauty all around. Don’t fear death. It happens to us all, eventually. More and more of the people I know and love are dead. But I meet new ones and develop new relationships. I’m not sure what I think of life after death but it’s something to look forward to. Since my husband died I’m often alone. Church is where I come to get hugs. We don’t always practice the tolerance we strive for, but we know better. We must respect each other’s beliefs no matter how hard it is sometimes . . . and remember to give hugs.
