while the other brings us joy. I choose joy.

What kind of world do you want to leave your great-grandchildren?
What can you do today to help create that world?

it is merely the absence of light.

Open yourself to the Light!
Hold back nothing,
Trust in the Light.

and the experiences of others may inspire you,
ultimately it will be the choices you discover
and make for yourself that lead you to certain joy
in the midst of your challenges.
