When I take my morning walk in the summer, I often run into a sweet senior in our neighborhood. He is a twice-widowed man in his late 80s. He faithfully walks his dog, Snuggles, twice a day. When I run into him, we always stop and have the best conversations. He asks about my family, and he tells me about his grandkids. He tells me about his work before he was retired and his travels. We talk about the weather and the neighborhood. Today, we talked about the world and how different it is from when he was younger—senseless killing and so much anger and fear. I offered that the social problems can’t be solved with money and policy, that the change has to be in the heart. He agreed and said, “It’s all about family … and love.” When someone who has his mileage says something like that, you listen. So, friends, according to my sweet friend, it’s all about family … and love. Let’s listen. Only love today. 💛
