These are fantastic, I adore each one. The value of ourselves being in the hands of others or things we can't control is quite a painful thing, hard to overcome, but so absolutely necessary. Still working on this one.

I have a background in psychology (now retired), so these are familiar, but always always helpful to be reminded of. I could comment on each one, but won't make my answer THAT long 😏... #4 is a really good one for people to recognize. Recently a question was posed in another newsletter "What was something important you learned from your parent/s?" My answer was connected to #2 --- both of my parents were always community volunteers, so I learned that & I've now been, for my entire adult life, a voluteer in a variety of organizations --- as I said, I'm now retired, so that's many years of volunteering & I still do so, about 25 hours a month. I love it & love what the organization does for the community, enjoy others I volunteer w/ & even in these divisive times most of us have no idea what political party we're interested in.
