It's a hard truth but hopefully it can help us take care of our hearts. It applies to so many contexts!

The Three Things To Keep In Mind When expecting our Family to act different during the Holidays is very helpful. Sometimes I try to figure out, why do people act the way they do, And what will it take for them to change. I thought the large amount of people we lost from Covid-19 was a wake up call, or the fact that racial tension seem to reach new modern level highs. Or look at our economy, inflation is very high and the homeless population is on the rise. Isn't pain and suffering and hard times suppose to motivate us to change? Sara maybe you can elucidate upon this topic more for us, using your expertise to help us cope better. We all love our families and friends hopefully, speaking for myself, I do. And we all want to see our families and friends get better. Sara I'm definitely going to look into buying your book. But I also think you should give insight to us, so we can know how to help our families when they are on a downturn in life. Just my thoughts and Christmas ideas/wishes.
