It was Victor Hugo who said something like, "There's nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come," and in small town Camden, NY, the simple idea that Amy Christmas brought to life has "blown up" in ways she never imagined. Her idea, centered on Holiday-themed inflatables, has made neighbors out of strangers, turned sadness into smiles, and provided a way for her community to connect in a powerful and poignant way. A great lesson for all of us this Holiday Season--after all, Connection is the antidote to all the human suffering we experience and witness in this life together. Connection is the Christmas Miracle We All Need!

What does it take to change the world? Hope.

Marvelous Ways International, a nonprofit organization founded by Mark and Christin Haywood, is on a mission to give hope, to invest hope, to inspire hope and to lift the lives of kids who come from very dangerous and impoverished communities in developing nations around the world.

They go where kids are in danger and address longstanding and complicated societal issues--which is no small task. MWI believes that we should not accept the current conditions that many young people face as "just the way it is," but instead, disrupt the cycle of poverty and violence that has become the norm.

Borders exist to control us but shouldn't stop us from being connected or extending HOPE.

If you have the means, visit their website and give to this mission to change generations to come. Make way for Hope.

Janet Jackson said it best in 1986 in her song, Control. I don't want to rule the world, I just wanna run my life. (It's on Spotify if you've never heard it.)

Lately I've been feeling disenchanted, disappointed and disgusted with this world, the election process, all of it. Remembering a lesson I learned a long time ago about the Circle of Control helped me put it in perspective again. Listen in to find out about the four concentric circles that make up our life and how to make sense of it all, and most importantly, how to zero in on what YOU can control.
