One thing that… Continue reading

Finding Focus with Your Senses
With so much going on and so many reasons to both worry about the future and get lost thinking about the past, it is easy to lose sight of the present. I know I have a tendency of focusing on the if/when’s of the future or the “if only’s” of the past, and at times… Continue reading
