September 5, 2023October 21, 2024 ~ Mekeisha ~ Leave a comment

Long ago, News was something we could change. Before technology, we learned about what was going on by word of mouth in our small communities. If a neighbor's barn burned down, we could help rebuild it. If a mother lost her child to sickness, neighbors would band together to provide support and relief through meals, … Continue reading The Purpose Of The News

Finding Joy in Life’s Lemons

August 5, 2023October 21, 2024 ~ Mekeisha ~ Leave a comment
