I met a group of fellows the other day and each shared life’s events for the ending year!... I shared how my work challenges were political and expected to continue for the next year!... another comment from a member of the group caught my attention profoundly!... he stated he was recently released from prison after spending eighteen years!... we asked how was he able to cope?... He answered, “every day he asked God to give him the strength to overcome his surroundings.”
