I love when I discover things by accident. Although, I admit that I get frustrated when I can’t remember where I originally stumbled upon the sites too.

For me, this little piece of wisdom has been nothing but true. I can account for several times in my life where this has happened. Growing up and going...
Joyeux Pacques / Happy Easter!
As I sit here reflecting on the year so far, and time that I have spent with this journey, I can find a certain peace. Peace that I am sharing of my passion with others and hopefully, inspiring others to pursue what they love most. What will make them feel whole. What will make them...
