The California wildfires have been, and continue to be, devastating. All of this has given me pause to think about what really matters.

It's better to get the facts about something, rather than wasting time and energy by letting my imagination run wild.

All of us individually have the power to be a good person, to help others when and where we can, and to make good choices.

Neighborhood holiday get-togethers are wonderful traditions for getting together friends of all ages for a fun afternoon.
