WORDS o f WISDOM 2025
Plan your future on a solid foundation.
“It is not the beauty of a building you should look at; it’s the construction of the foundation that will stand the test of time.”— David
It’s summer and many people will be traveling to exciting destinations! My wife and I have had the opportunity to visit a number of amazing places, including the beautiful city of Venice, Italy. Venice is more than 1,500 years old. It dates back to the mid-400s. The people built the city in haste to avoid the barbarian raids after the collapse of the Roman Empire. There was no time for a solid foundation. The city has 118 islands, over 170 canals, and 400 bridges. The historic center buildings, both big and small, were constructed on spongy marshland ground. Centuries ago, countless wooden pilings were driven into the marshland terrain for support.

Allan Coe
Today, around 51,000 people, mostly senior citizens, live in the historical island city of Venice. The first woman in the world to graduate from a University was born in Venice in 1646. The first public casino in the world was opened in Venice in 1638. Some of the most famous Venetians include explorer Marco Polo, opera composer Antonio Vivaldi, the great lover Casanova, and evangelist Saint Mark. The word "ciao" has Venetian origins. In ancient times, people used it in Venice to greet each other in this way: “s-ciavo vostro,” which means “your servant, at your orders, your slave.”
So as time went by, at first the greeting was “s-ciao” and then became “ciao.”
