Change happens; managing it well is a faith process. My husband and I are getting older. So are you. So is everyone. Some just start sooner. We

The posies in my photo aren’t soft, fragrant, or belong anywhere near my pocket. Ouch! I’d love to seldom see them, with discovery a rare occurrence. Never would
