I needed to get out today — away from the clutter at home and the clutter in my mind. I needed to feel the sunshine and the wind in my hair. I needed to let the sounds of people talking, children pla...
My One Little Word: forward. I’ve been thinking about it, praying about it, journaling about it, and saving things that remind me to embrace it. So far, in these first months of 2012, forward h...
