From today's "Ask Marilyn" column, as penned by Marilyn vos Savant, Guinness World Record Hall of Fame member (www.marilynvossavant.com/bio.html)
When asked her opinion on the best moral barometer of a country, Ms. Vos Savant offers this succinct and pointed response: "The esteem in which society holds its elderly."
In other news, the death of William F. Buckley Jr. this week was the subject of several op-ed pieces. I thought the words of speechwriter L. Boggs were particularly meaningful...
"Buckley gave a glimpse of what a life well-lived can look like: enjoying what you do, pursuing your passions, loving your spouse, working out your faith each day. He made each moment count."
No matter where we might sit on the political fence, that's good advice to take to heart any day.
Be well.
