God's Gift -- the Creative Imagination&nbsp;"The imagination is the God-spark within you. The only gift of God we can rightly lay claim to in the physical body is the gift of imagination. "If you learn how to use the full powers of the imagination and direct them toward the spiritual exercises, you will be able to find ways around the blocks set up by the mind."

<h4>Rightsizing is about creating a living situation that truly fits your current and future lifestyle needs. For many seniors, this may mean reorganizing or simplifying their current home, making important updates or adaptations to improve safety and accessibility, or even moving into a new home that better supports aging in place. Rightsizing isn’t always about downsizing — it’s about finding the “right size” and setup for your stage of life.</h4>
A light lunch will be served.
Our speaker for this event is Andriana Mendez, Co-Owner of <a href="https://custom-movers.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Custom Moving Solutions</a> and Founder of Sensational Seniors.
