Heroes don’t always wear capes, and sometimes they may be hard to spot. But everyday heroes are out there making a difference for sometimes one or sometimes many, and they are doing what needs to be done to help those in need.

Those that we connect with, often become our friends. The deeper the connection – the closer we become, and the more we share, laugh, cry, listen, and are there for each other. Friendships can be the gold thread in the fabric of our lives.

Why did that happen? How does that work? What do you think? What was your experience like? Curiosity is the gateway to understanding why something happened, how things work, and a persons perspective. When we are curious, the door to lifelong learning is wide open.

Timing is everything, a chance encounter or conversation can alter the course of our lives. A glimpse into our personal story shows how a sliding door moment brought our two lives together.

Having a mantra can help us keep focused on what we deem important in life. Sometimes even old adages and sage advice can keep us from trouble. We share our mantras, how they’ve helped us, and ways we’ve kept them in the forefront of our thoughts.
