Acts of Kindness

Trust

I woke up this morning at around 3:00 and knew I was not going to be able to sleep even though I am so tired. There are so many thoughts swirling in my head from the different experiences I had yesterday at work, I know that until I can organize Read more

The Freedom to Choose

This morning I had this moment of understanding which surprised me. In order for me to find myself, I had to be willing to give up everyone I loved. It brings to mind the question I heard once, I believe it was either in a book I was reading shortly Read more

My Documentary…….in part

The Impact of Dreams
