URBAN LEAGUE PRESIDENT SAYS LOOK TO HISTORY FOR ASSURANCE THAT BETTER TIMES LAY AHEAD

Every time I hear the word Recession, I think about the early 90s when the same word headlined every news report.  It was scary.

But then economic boom times followed under President Clinton.

"Look to history," says National Urban League President Marc Morial, who recently addressed the Detroit Economic Club, "and you'll see that America is so resilient, we will find a silver lining and get through this.  History shows that whatever the problem is, we can rise above it and enjoy better days."

That is so comforting.  Daily news reports inspire me to think back on where America's been... wars, the Depression, the KKK era, slavery, colonial days.  All that reminds me how far we've come.  And how confident we should be that better days lay ahead.

So if times feel tough, think about scary times in history that America pulled through to become bigger and better.  So Find Your Daily Bliss by making the best of today, confident that better days ahead will sparkle even brighter.
