Abundance

A few weeks ago I was feeling constricted. I was worried about money and not having enough. I felt as if everything made me think of it and my lack of it. I had just finished reading Jen Sincero’s book You are a Badass at Making Money and truly believed that within the next few…

One of millions

I just finished reading Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert. I loved it. I can’t wait to read it again! I’ve already put it in my calendar to pick up and read in six months, and then once a year after that for ten years (ha! I’ll be 53 when I stop reading it… if I…
