by Nomad
The French philosopher, author, and playwright, Albert Camus was one of the most influential thinkers of the post-World War era. He was the recipient of the 1957 Nobel Prize in Literature at the age of 44, the second-youngest recipient in history. His works include The Stranger, The Plague, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Fall and The Rebel.

A Thanksgiving Message
by Nomad
As we gather around our tables this Thanksgiving, we are reminded that hope is a light that shines brightest in our darkest moments. In a world that often seems challenging and uncertain, gratitude becomes our most powerful anchor.
It's the stabilizing influence in our lives.
We find strength not by ignoring our difficulties but by acknowledging them. At the same time, we must choose to appreciate the enduring beauty that surrounds us.
