The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time. — James Vernon Taylor (1948-) Composer
A sweet little baby is Endearing. Each of us comes into this world with a set of values gifted to us simply by the generosity of grace. As we grow, it is our responsibility to expand these elemental qualities into more sophisticated and personal flowers and gems of goodness. Our second word this week is Cordial. In both definitions is the word affection(ate). Therefore cordiality is an outgrowth of being endearing.
Pax,
Jim
