Let my mind be still and my heart be at peace.
There is always so much to say, so much to listen to, so much to think about it. But, if we allow ourselves a moment of rest and peace, the answers we need often come without thought. This week’s mantra: Let my mind be still and my heart be at peace. Let my mind […]
Embrace the transition.
With the 4th of July approaching this week, longer days and warmer air, summer feels like it has finally arrived. As with any other season, there is a sense of transition. My energy is completely different in the summer and as a result my days tend to be a lot different as well. Waking early […]
I Understand.

I will fill my days with passion.
Although it has been almost 12 years since I left my “real” job, I still clearly remember the sadness and anxiety I would have when I drove to and from work. I was living the life that I “should” be living rather than the life I truly wanted. Back then, I’m not sure it was […]
