Mothers Know Best

Submitted by ub on

Mothers know best and we all should know better. Women are smarter than men and have already proved it over and again.

Moms are struggling in the workforce while #USA is the only developed nation that doesn't offer paid leave on a national basis.
When will America catch up to the rest of the east, south north and west?

Salary parity and affordable childcare should not be out of reach because while Dad is being paid more, MoM does most and must receive moral support a great deal of gratitude from society, while also keeping in mind that every day is Mother Day.

Throughout my lifetime, I have known wiser, memorable and inspirational older individuals. My wonderful parents Margarita, Antonio, my brothers, my children, and the best grandkids any proud grandpa would ever want. Also there are the other members of my family who have taught me very important life lessons.

As I keep living, learning, and reflecting on blessings around me I see the key to longevity is to keep learning and moving forward at a steady pace.

The Art of A Loser

Submitted by ub on

Do you know a person who has lost lots of money and keeps losing, not only with approval ratings in the toilet, but for financial losses in business, government or in politics?

What about a real loser who will not accept defeat with good grace, as specified by we won by cheating or lost the popular vote fair and square? These people should concede and be good losers if not for only one, then for all of US.

How about an individual that put us all at a disadvantage by a chain of unfortunate situations or actions?
