Who Is Really Protecting Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Because these programs aren’t numbers. They’re people. Before you start reading this musing, I know this one is long. I know people don’t always want to read something this long anymore. We are used to short posts, quick videos and getting our information in a few sentences. But some things are too important to reduce to a few sentences.

Being S.A.F.E. - What Letting Go Of People Feels Like (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some people are meant to be part of our story, but not every chapter. This is a companion musing to “Being S.A.F.E. — What Letting Go Feels Like”.

We sure seem to forget that the August 6, 2001 Presidential Daily Brief warned President George W. Bush that Osama bin Laden was determined to strike inside the United States. We can argue forever about what could have been done differently, but the warning was there, and we still failed to stop it. We sure see
