The Hope Chronicles
Last month, we shared a video that is part of a series featuring people ages 0 – 100 giving their answers to some of life’s big questions. Today, we’d like to share another video from the series, this time one that focuses on the most important life lessons that people have learned. We find the answers to be quite moving, ranging from the importance of acceptance and forgiveness to lessons that align with Yeske Buie’s core values to Learn Big and Live Big. We hope the video provides you with an opportunity for reflection and appreciation for your Live Big life.
