Too Many Glass Balls
To reuse Amelia’s metaphor, I’ve dropped the plastic balls, which includes this blog. My slow down in posting started by me living in the moment and enjoying life and my family. I wanted to soak the good in not try to process it in words. I had the energy to participate fully in life, which…
