Need I Say More?

Of course I will. Never did I meet a quote that I could let stand alone. When this one flashed across my newsfeed this morning I thought Hmm…what a novel idea…duh.

The Rest of God

I love mornings.

A Bit of Traffic, A Bit of Patience

One morning last week I was on my way to exercise. I stopped at the end of my road to make a right onto 6A, the main road.
