I was reading this morning about belonging, and how it is an undeniable need for each person to know they belong. Where they belong can be different for each person. For some reason, the phrase “one size fits all” popped into my head as I was reading. It most often is referring to a piece of clothing,Continue reading “One Size Fits All”

My Parent’s Love
Last week I shared about how I experienced my parent’s deaths differently. Today I’d like to share about the ways I experienced their love. A few months ago, I had accepted an offer for a different job and I was waiting for my book to be published.
