17. President Jimmy Carter is a good example for all of us
Sun Nov 10, 2024, 01:07 PM
Nov 2024

He's still fighting and he reached 100 this year! None of us know how long we have, but Carter never gave up the good fight. I hope he's still with us for the next election. But even after he's gone to his greater reward, I know he'll be looking down from heaven and giving us the encouragement we need. The next 4 years won't be easy, so let's help each other get through it.
