A Joyous Season
From the desk of Senator David Pearce
These last few weeks of the year always serve to remind me to appreciate the things I have, from large to small. My family, my colleagues, my work, even those things that are considered busy at times, all become blessings as the year winds down to its final days.
The holiday season is upon us once more, keeping everyone busy with gatherings, celebrations, pageants, and concerts. The wonder of this season never fails to amaze me. The enjoyment I get out of the smiling faces of people I come into contact with is nothing less than heart-warming.
