Why is it and what can we do to change it? Why did people seem to get along better years ago but not today or did they really get along better years ago? We are the same people in the same county so something has happened. Maybe instead of focusing on what we don’t have or what others may take from us, we should focus on what we have and what we can give so more can have too. What do you have to be thankful for and what do you want to have to be thankful for? Let’s discuss this. On behalf of Our Own Voices Live and the entire Speak Up network, we wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!
