“Caring is such a simple thing, yet it is so often neglected in our fast-paced world.” In this story, Marianne Larned tells how she and her mother and aunt, realized that their family was drifting apart and that something precious was being lost. “Somewhere along the way, our family’s tradition of caring seemed to fade,” she says. “Sometimes we forgot how much we needed each other.” By creating a family reunion, they reconnected with each other, renewed old friendships and rekindled their family spirit. In the process, they passed a special legacy of caring on to the next generation. “We forget to take time for each other and for our families,” says Marianne. “But if we want to change the world, that’s the best place to start.”
