Articles I share to help build the life I love to live.
Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we shall live again. Chances are each of us has much to celebrate in our lives but how much time do we take to enjoy it and share it? The image of the champagne cork evokes a feeling within me of celebration with reckless abandon. Whomever caused the…
Expressing ourselves creatively can really help up us to both develop our imagination and reduce stress in our lives. Whenever I have been asked the question in my life; are you an artist? I always say yes. When people would then say; do you paint? I would respond, “not yet but I intend to some…
