    Permission to Pause

    I give everywhere — but I don’t always give myself the time to absorb what I’ve learned. And that’s costing me more than exhaustion ever could. My family gets me daily. My job gets forty hours.

    Avoidance

    It’s Working theme has pulled my evolution, my relationship with God and my faith walk together, causing me to have balance between who I am with who I’m becoming. Which is why now  seems like a better time than any to deal with my past. Honestly, I would rather not. I left things dormant in…
