Happy New Year 2014

This is always a hopeful time, as we celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another," 

year 2013 was difficult for many Americans,
we must also look back on this year with the knowledge that brighter days are ahead of us – that although our challenges are great, each of us has the courage and determination to rise up and meet them.
