As we cruise into 2025, let’s take a lesson in generosity. Whether through time, talent or treasure, giving makes a lasting impact. The smallest kindness can mean everything. Vera Hogan reminds us to embrace kindness in all its forms.

During the final days of 2024, a good friend and I were chatting about our concerns regarding the upcoming year and its many unknowns. She very wisely stated, “There is nothing we can do except take care of ourselves, and always be kind and generous to those who need it.” I wholeheartedly agreed...

Happiness doesn't come with the flip of a switch; it’s a daily choice. It’s found in simple joys, letting go of negatives, and sharing positivity with others. Leslie Toldo asks: Will you choose happiness today?

“Folks are usually about as happy as they make up their minds to be,” Abraham Lincoln once said. The first time I saw that quote, I was confused. It implies that happiness is a choice. “If happiness was a choice, wouldn’t everyone be happy all the time?” I reasoned. I was determined to fin...
