Thankfully, Words Do Have Meaning
We’ve gotten used to a filtered version of reality, one where we can speak our opinions without seeing the immediate effects our words had on others. The thing is, though, our words do have an effect. They impact other people. They can hurt. They can comfort. They are powerful.
Earning Courage
“Courage is not something that you already have that makes you brave when the tough times start. Courage is what you earn when you’ve been through the tough times and you discover they aren’t so tough after all.” ~ Malcolm Gladwell
For All the Moms...
This Mother’s Day, I wanted to take a minute to tell my mom and all of the other moms…thank you. Thank you for never giving up. Thank you for your patience. Thank you for believing that we can achieve anything and giving us the courage to try. Mostly, thank you for always being on our side.
