Did you ever notice how water flows during a rainstorm? It rushes down a hill with force, and if it runs into an object, it either goes around or on top of it. It’s fascinating to watch. Water does its own thing and will go where it wants to go. We have an old stone […]
I’ve always been a private person, only sharing my life and true thoughts with a few people. And I have to trust someone first to do that. I’ve been putting my life out there, and after the dust settled from my anxiety from doing it, I know now it was the right thing to do. […]
