The right to try
It is the last weekend of January and hopefully February will just zip by enabling us to scoot in to March and promise of a beautiful spring.
Today, I am pleased to share an editorial by our president Donna J. Jodhan; the right to try. This is a very thought provoking editorial and I encourage you to read on.
Have a great weekend.

The right to try
By Donna J. Jodhan
We are living in a world where we are constantly being challenged to defend our rights; the right to social and medical services, the right to information, and practically the right to everything that everyone else has a right to. I could go on and on to what rights we need to have access to and there is someone out there who will gently remind me that I either forgot to add a certain right or that I should not have mentioned a certain one.
All well and good but I’d like to add just one more to the growing list; the right to try. In a world where we are constantly struggling to understand why certain groups should or should not be given access to certain services and facilities, I humbly submit that the right to try is a basic right of us all. If anything, we should all be given the right to try even if this right may be seen by some as one that may be either in vein or a complete waste of time.
Everyone deserves the right to try because one never knows what could happen. There is nothing like trying and nothing better than being able to succeed. Sometimes, we may think that we have tried everything that we can with regard to a certain project or task but then along comes someone else and bingo! A fresh pair of eyes or a recharged mind and presto! Success!
Just my thoughts for today.
