If you live a legacy life, and create a legacy that extends far beyond your own life, you will impact future generations in ways you may never witness: You will plant fruit trees whose harvest you'll never taste. You will start projects that outlive your patronage. You will sow seeds of change in fields beyond your sight. You will build bridges to shores you'll never reach. You will light beacons for voyagers yet unborn. You will pen stories whose endings others will write. Your echoes will ripple through time's unseen waters, beyond the shores of uncharted tomorrows. #LEGACYLIFE #JesusLegacy

Hope is not optimism, which expects things to turn out well, but something rooted in the conviction that there is good worth working for.

Enough of a break in the clouds for Rick Farrell to capture the full #HarvestMoon rising over North Myrtle Beach. #scwx #ncwx

We can’t just keep going to therapy to learn how to function in a dysfunctional world. We have to make the world more functional.

Good morning, friends. Transitions are hard, and life is full of transitions. Be gentle with yourself. Talk it through with friends or a therapist or in a journal. Give yourself rest and nourishment, breaks and soft blankets. Change is hard. It’s okay to have a hard time with it.

I've seen first-hand @doriannpalmer 's passion for making a difference, for achieving equity for all, and for challenging the status quo. Wishing him all the best as he pursues this leadership role with @ydnc.
Folks: I am excited to announce my candidacy for President of the Young Democrats of North Carolina (@ydnc). Last year, when I retired as Vice President for Membership of the Young Democrats of North Carolina, I thought that this chapter had closed. 1/

Peace to those worn down by how long all this has been going on Those who dream of rest and joy of green pastures and birdsong of friends and laughter Instead of work and work and worry and not enough sleep Peace to the dreaming and peace to wondering why it has to be a dream.

A holiday present for the ages 🌎 On Christmas Eve in 1968, Apollo 8 astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders became the first humans to orbit the Moon, and the first to witness the magnificent sight called "Earthrise."

What is more commonly known as ‘Carol of the Bells’ was originally a Ukrainian folk chant welcoming the New Year called ‘Shchedryk’. It was arranged by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych in 1916. Here it is performed by Helena Androsova. (1/3)

Will be forever grateful to @BradleyWhitford, @snuffywalden, @Tromboneshorty, and all the others involved in the 2006 Christmas episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip for giving us this amazing rendition of "O Holy Night". Merry Christmas! youtu.be/_rayDO-gS4Q
