Minnich: Today’s youth will carry forward social justice, enlightenment

This is the part of year for time travels of the personal sort as graduations, recitals, weddings, and other transitions take us into the moment, back down roads of memories, and forward into the hopes of those we care about. For a suspended few hours, we leave the world of today’s tumult and wander along paths almost covered with the weeds of history. Memories applied in the context of the dreams of an emerging generation sprout new blooms of hope in even the most worn and neglected gardens.
