Our blaming lists of fault and finger pointing go on and on. Everyday each of us faces a staggering amount of personal choices.
Every selfish act is an opportunity that has been lost.
Every gossiping word, every lie, every thoughtless manipulation and every unkind word takes us that much further backward in our daily desires and our daily struggle for a safe and loving community. Julie Bruno, of whom I am writing this week, has worked hard at making productive choices in her personal struggle to make her world and, therefore, our world, a better place to live. With the loyal support of her husband of 16 years, Julie launched her own business. The lure of a flexible schedule and of creative personal control led Julie, five years ago, in the direction of her own desktop publishing business. Working from her home has allowed Julie to be her own boss, to maintain a steady income and have access to the time that is necessary to do her very best work for each one of her clients.
