“This too shall pass,” my dad used to say, mostly in fun. Remembering his voice, I find myself waiting now for his hopeful prophetic words to prove true.
With everything going on in our country and our world these days, it can be hard to find the light. That’s my story. So when news breaks, I try to refocus on the big picture of our history, aiming to ease my fears about what might come next. This country’s made it through some bad times before, right? I guess we’ll see.
The exercise helps at least to improve my view. So does the sun. Some things are easier to see in the daylight.
And I know others agree.
