The past couple of years have been difficult for many people. I don’t know anyone that COVID hasn’t touched, in one way or another. Then there’s the unstable economy, political unrest, and our unique individual challenges. (For me, that means cancer.)
It would be easy to approach the new year with a “bah humbug” attitude, anticipating another discouraging year. However, I’m choosing to believe 2023 will be a much better year. I hope you’ll join me.
To help get us off to a good start, I’m sharing 16 of my favorite quotes about the new year. Please share them with your residents, too!
