My grandmother traveled alone to the US from Italy at the age of 14. She spoke no English. She carried all she owned in a satchel. In her heart she carried faith, hope, and trust that all would work out. And, it did. God Bless you Nonna.
I am an optimistic, can do, and never quit guy. The spirit of hope indelibly marks my DNA. My research at The Ohio State University helped people discover the best in themselves and change their personal lives, public organizations, and whole communities. I bring the same spirit and enthusiasm to my blog to help those who grieve who find themselves suddenly alone, navigate their grieving. Join my more than 24,300Twitter (@alwaysgoodstuff). I promise my tweets are always good stuff. Please feel free to email me at ray.brese@gmail.com.
