Thanks, Giving and Gifting
The end-of-year holidays are a time for gratitude and reflection. Sometimes THE FORMER IS HARDER when standing in long airport lines or paying inflation prices for presents. But those are the times when it is most important to be thankful. As we thank, give and gift, here are a few stories on how people got to where they are to make a difference in other people’s lives. Some are good and some are bad, and all are lessons in the paths taken. Maybe that is the gift.
