I keep a “treasure box” with clippings of newspapers and magazine articles that spark inspiration and motivation with me. I often look back and, surprisingly, or not… I usually find a message that speaks to the very situation I’m facing or pondering about. I would love to cite the source, but I honestly do not …

I once heard someone some words that greatly moved my heart. I feel it is my duty to share them with you: “Let go of your ego’s need to be right. When you’re in the middle of an argument, ask yourself: Do I want to be right or be happy?” I looked up the definition …
