When planning for retirement, Social Security isn’t just another item on your financial checklist. For women especially, it’s often the cornerstone of a secure retirement. The Social Security Administration reports that nearly 55% of Social Security benefit recipients are women, and for many, it’s their primary source of retirement income.
Kindness is often dismissed as a soft virtue with the belief that it is nice, but not necessary. Kindness is not just a moral preference or social courtesy but a psychological necessity. Kindness supports mental health, strengthens relationships, and stabilizes communities. When kindness erodes emotional well-being follows. When kindness flourishes, individuals and societies alike become resilient and more emotionally stable.
Texas was once known as “the friendly state.” People would wave as we drove past, and there was courtesy. People would open doors for each other. You would also hear the words ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ from strangers. But things appear to be changing in Texas, and not for the better.
