It seems like only yesterday, we had just made it past the Y2K scare and the world was still here inspite of all the computer glitches and yet today we are in 2009.    As we look around at 2009, it appears to be another year of uncertainty and concern.   No one knows what 2009 will hold as we look at all the issues facing us in this new year.   However, I received an e-mail this week that I think gives us an opportunity to make 2009 a more positive year for all of us in spite of what is happening aroung us.  Please read the article at the following link.   You will not be disappointed.

When you finish the article, you will see that valuing people and showing people that they do have value in spite of life circumstances can and does make a positive difference in our lives and theirs.    Let's work together to make 2009, the year of valuing others!
