SPRINGFIELD – Charity, it is said, begins at home.
It’s a common phrase, and one that often is misinterpreted. In fact, a British clergyman and historian, Thomas Fuller, popularized the proverb in the 17th century, with the full text stating “Charity begins at home, but should not end there.”
Fortunately, we are surrounded by people who live up to the full statement.
Our family, friends, and neighbors are doing important work all the time right…
