The things we see in life are not always what they appear to be. Many life events can go either way if we take the time to look differently. Let’s take grief. Grief isn’t only about death, but it what we assume when we hear or read that word. Grief can be the loss of... Continue Reading →
I was in a crummy mood, mostly from the news the past few days. I took a time out and noodled on what I could do to be better. I have written in the past about giving daily gifts, right? Thinking about that reminded me about when I was in my 20’s and I worked... Continue Reading →
