You Deserve To Be Happy
You deserve to be happy. Not just a little bit happy. Not just mediocre happy. You deserve to be genuinely happy, excited happy, ready-to-face-each-day happy. You deserve to be happy.

Ride With Faith
I received an email this week that inspired this blog entry. A woman in her late 50’s wrote to me about her fear of losing her faith. She’s had a very rough past couple of years. As I read everything that she has been through, my heart was heavy for her. She lost her husband […]
