It's a beautiful day in my neck of the woods and I hear the sound of teenagers playing in the pool with Music in the background. Feels like a good time to share some reflections. A short thread - 1/. We are in for some tough times both as a nation and as a society. That may dismay some but I look at it as an opportunity. Struggle gives you purpose. In good times it might be hard to figure out what our purpose but in difficult times the struggle becomes our purpose . .
