When They Threw Him a Lemon, He Made SO Much More Than Lemonade
Isn’t it amazing what one can do in response to a life crisis.
Written by Suzanne V. Tanner and Amy Marley
In our troubled world, there are many ways to dig in and do our part.
The list of issues needing our support and involvement appears endless. Here’s a partial list, but let me tell you upfront (although you already know), there are so many that this inventory will not and cannot include them all.
Mass shootings, gun control, the war in Ukraine, coronavirus, misinformation, conspiracy theory, Roe v.Wade, health care, new pathogens with abilities to run amok, poverty, hunger, homelessness, baby formula shortage, racism, misogyny, LGBTQ2+ human rights, climate issues, scarce resources, living wages, worker respect and compensation, the selfishness of the 1%, immigration, political corruption, greed, gaslighting, ageism, a disrespect for education and critical thinking.
See, you already spotted some that I missed.
My apologies for all omissions, but this post intends to point out the volume of what is facing us.
