Cook County News Herald

Be grateful for what we have


“You’ve got to accentuate the positive, Eliminate the negative, Latch on to the affirmative, Don’t mess with Mister In-Between.”

We have an excellent education system in Cook County.

We have good law enforcement and reasonably good county and city administrations.

We are a county of a little more than 5,000 people, but we must be reminded of the fact that we are 20,000 people in the summer and fall.

We have a great art community and music activity and strong churches.

We need to be careful we do not make the perfect the enemy of the good. We should always be grateful for what we have and not grumble so much.
