I find it quite ironic that this quote resonates so strongly now with me ~ as always, it may be that there is more than one truth and that we were both right after all. I was so offended when he told me how it seemed like I took a step back and looked…

It’s been a really stressful and rough April for me ~ I’ve been worried about being on the right path or not and trying to figure out what I really want to do. I’ve been struggling about what direction I should be headed but I realized that one of the best lessons that I learned…
