APPROACHING THE NEW YEAR
Why do we believe what we do? Is our belief system based on how we were raised, on what our parents or places of education told us, what we read on social media or hear on the news, on our own life experiences, or a combination of these? As we approach the New Year, we […]
WHAT IS YOUR FACE SHAPE?

FINISHING WELL
Not enough is said or written today about finishing well. Let’s extol the virtues of sticking with something until it’s done.
