Description
Summary:  Life is filled with uncertainty and when a disaster or hard times occur often times individuals and families are rendered vulnerable with feelings that include helplessness and confusion. As emotions shift from shock to survival and reasoning, the bad event or hard times begin to be processed. Beliefs and energies may shift from thoughts of sadness and despair into action. We want to help, but how? And who can we trust? It’s great to follow your heart, but be sure to lead with your head. Employ critical thinking here. Remember to stop, think, and finally act. Said another way, do the research first to ensure your good intentions and your hard earned money are stewarded with virtuous intention- thoughtfully and with integrity.
