King Manor, Fourth Floor kitchen renovations have begun today!

What amoral Donald Trump’s words and deeds has made me relearn about human society

We all need to look beyond childish, tribal definitions of race, ethnicity, and gender to see all individuals as first and foremost human beings worthy of respect, forgiveness, and friendship.  While I do not always live up to this gold standard of human behavior, I attempt to make a good effort to treat other people as I would like to be treated.  In addition, I attempt to say something positive about other people, try to be helpful for other people when I can, and look at the bright side in everyday situations.

An occurrence at East First Street and North Third Avenue East
