This is usually the case when we are in need of forgiving an… Continue reading Breaking Free of the “Self-Pity Party” – Thoughts on Forgiveness

Choose Being Kind
It's been awhile since I have written something for Warrior Wednesday, however, I came across this little quote and decided that it may be time to resume. There is far too much contention in the world. Proving that you are right and that someone else is wrong is not really a Warrior mentality. In fact,… Continue reading Choose Being Kind
