Day 878 – The State of the World, Life Span – Ask Gramps

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy Welcome to Day 878 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Day 878 of our trek, and it is time for our Philosophy Friday series. Each Friday we will ponder some of the basic truths and mysteries of life, and how they can impact us in creating our living legacy. As we continue on this trek called life, sometimes we have questions about life, so our Friday trek is a time where we can Ask Gramps. Gramps will answer questions that you would like to ask your dad or granddad, but for whatever reason, are unable to do so.
