Called to brighten the world and lighten the load in 2020
Many are carrying heavy loads this season. I talked to a woman in town recently. She is inching toward retirement age, like me. I turned 68 today. I asked her how she was doing. She smiled, shrugged a bit, and said she had just gained custody of her four grandchildren. She goes home from a stressful management job and now spends her evenings feeding and helping four grandkids do homework. Then baths.
