There is a wonderful feeling that comes with finally making the decision to change. It’s so freeing and relieving, and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders. It’s almost like you know you’ve taken the first step and the end result is soon to follow. But there is another feeling that …
Have you ever felt like life was throwing lemons at you from every direction? I remember a season when I felt like someone was pulling a nasty April Fool’s Day trick on me. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a joke. First, my sister landed in the ER after experiencing severe complications from a surgical procedure. I had to fly …
Several years ago, I took a trip to Florida with my husband and our two boys. We were there for a business meeting, but we also had the opportunity to take the boys to the beach. We arrived on the earlier side — around 8AM — and what I saw during that hour absolutely amazed me. The …
I recently received a thank-you letter from one of our wonderful members.
