In December, I invite you to join me as we explore the core affirmations of Louise Hay, share personal experiences, and discuss her timeless teachings. We will meet on Friday, December 12 at 11 a.m. in the Clubhouse, room GP-G . Last month, many of you saw the film about Louise Hay and her simple but profound message. When I was young, I was taught to think before I spoke. As an adult, I learned that I should think before I think — a lesson I first discovered through Louis

Once again, Century Village East is entering an election season defined not by healthy civic engagement, but by empty seats, a shortage of candidates, and a process that shuts out nearly the entire community. This year, the situation is especially embarrassing. Of the seven open seats on the COOCVE Board of Directors, four will be completely vacant. Not one person stepped forward to run. Not one. Meanwhile, two other seats are uncontested, meaning the two people currently in
