From the Editor's Computer
After the past week and a half of various challenges coming my way, I have determined that there are two main reasons why troubles and problems come into our lives.
The first reason, I believe, is to stretch our minds and make us become more creative. When the usual solutions don't work, there is nothing else to do, but to come up with a more creative solution. It then becomes a challenge to find the right resource to get the right support...whether a person or information. It then truly becomes a case of "who you know" which makes the difference between success or more problems. If you can’t get in the front door or the back door, you have to come up with an innovative means of entering through the window of opportunity. Above all else, one must never give up.
The second reason is so that we end up owing our friends for major favours! If you are lucky, your friends won't actual keep a score card as to who owes whom more! While we are individuals, we are not isolated. We need other people to support and help us when life is more challenging than usual. As well, others may have expertise or talents which we haven’t developed. Each of us has an unique contribution to make to others, and if we can help those around us, so much better. It is true that two heads are better than one, and three or more can generate multiple ideas.
So, to all my friends who helped me out during this challenging time...THANKS!
