Sadly, we need to be reminded as “our leaders” continue to lower the bar.

That is just lovely.

We’ve had so much time to stop and consider … everything. While the times have opened up a well of dissatisfaction and strife, they’ve also served to open up our hearts. Neither of those is very difficult to find.

Thanks for sharing with us your ability to see the heart of it.
