I've been elected to write something for my family Christmas thing this year. Cheesy I know, but It's been done every year, and the aunt I can't stand who lies all the time is going to be there and I want to really make her squirm. Help? Duckie

We must make the world honest before we can honsetly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.
(And that goes for the imposters in the White House as well as your aunt!)

Those are qualities which are a must if we are to claim civility. But here's my favorite since I'm feeling well insightful... "grant me the strength to accept that which I can not change, the courage to change what I can and the wisdom to know the differenece."

14. well here is a buddhist meditation |
|
This is part of the so called metta meditation. It begins with the use of the first person pronoun," I," then wih members of one's family or a collective. like "we." May we be filled with loving kindness May we be well May we be at peace and at ease and may we be happy.
