My heart is pulled every which way when I read about or hear incidences in which people experience injustice, unfairness, discrimination, cruelty and spite. I am saddened by the continuing wars in which the United States is involved, yet I am hopeful that a sense of urgency to create a diplomatic environment where peace can thrive bring solid solutions. Some hymns and patriotic songs can bring tears to my eyes. Years ago, I wrote a book titled, "It's Okay to Cry." I have cried many times, about many different things. But I don't wallow in tears and self-pity. Instead, I look toward what I can do to help things along or make changes when they are necessary. When we focus on our tears in a constructive way, we have a habit of tuning into our heart, and that is always a very good thing.
