To continue in what seems to be the dismantling of paradigms lately, I’ll take us on a brief journey today into the world of loss. More like into the world of perceived loss. If you’ve been reading my blog very long, you will know that I like to create a space for [...]
Today’s blog is short and simple. It’s very simple. It’s about keeping it simple. “Nothing matters except how we are arriving at life today.” For some reason, that sentence makes me breathe relief. Just saying the words out loud and personalizing it seems to trigger an inner [...]
