“Hope springs eternal from the human breast” - Alexander Pope’s famous line from An Essay on Man, strikes a chord with me at a very deep level. We not only have hope for ourselves and for those we love in our day to day living, we are also inspired by stories of people who overcome great difficulty and enormous odds, never giving up hope, even when others around them gave in to despair. One such story is the story of Corrie ten Boom, a Dutch Christian who, along with her father and other family members, helped many Jews escape the Nazi Holocaust during World War II. Imprisoned for her actions, her most famous book, The Hiding Place, describes a journey of faith and hope as she lived through a horrible ordeal.

You know in your heart when it's time to talk to your aging loved one about living in a retirement community. But how do you begin such an important, complicated conversation? Is there some way to keep the discussion upbeat and optimistic so your loved one is actually looking forward to living in a retirement community? Also, how do you determine whether a retirement community will fully address your loved one's needs and expectations?

If we are to believe the political and social pundits of our day, we live in a time that is often described as angry. There is anger at elected officials that do not pay attention to the desires of their constituents; anger at those who disagree with us on the solutions to the problems of our day; anger at those who are intolerant toward those who share our views; anger at the growing disparity of income and wealth in our society; anger at the political correctness that restricts open dialogue on areas of disagreement; anger at those who express their anger by exhibiting disruptive behavior; anger at those who encourage aggressive behavior toward those with whom they disagree; anger at anyone who seems willing to compromise on important principles rather than stand up for what they believe; and anger at the gridlock that is the byproduct of opposing forces that are unwilling to compromise. The list could go on and on.
