A lot happens in a day. It truly does. From the highs to the lows, we experience many actions, feelings, emotions, people, places, and things throughout one day on this Earth. And when we end the day, we get that time to process and balance ourselves as we sleep to reset for the next day.…
The thought of taking a moment to be still always presents itself highly in my mind. Just a second to take a breath. To think about what's happening around me. And no matter what I feel like I'm going through in that moment, I always feel calmness. That simple pause to just breathe - to…
I began this blog 3 years ago to simply try something new. To see if it helped me with life as I reflected in a new way. As you know, it has become an integral and highly meaningful part of my life and it has turned into my philanthropy, in a sense. I just love…
