I rarely come across a person who says they “sleep like a rock” all of the time. Most would say rarely, if ever at all. We have all had a night or two that we awake in the dark. And as dark does, it threatens to swallow us whole. Cycling thoughts begin. Never is it […]
What NOT To Do on Social Media

The Power of Silence
If you’re anything like me, you have little time or opportunity to experience true silence. Life is busy and loud. The world around us is busy and loud. There’s barely any time to slow down and rest in the quiet. We feel that we always have to loudly proclaim our successes to “keep up” with […]
