Greeter & Thought for the Day: Noting that several of us have spent the past several months taking time to clean out our closets, Cathy M. shared a quote attributed to Oprah Winfrey: “If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more. If you look at what you don’t have, you’ll never have enough.”
