Thought for the Day: May the Lord Give them Peace
I haven’t sleep well this week. I kept waking up in the night, thinking about the Edwards family. That poor family. Not just their family, but all Black families.

MoreThought for the Day: Yoga Bubble
Within us all exists a balance of dark and light. If the pendulum swings too hard one way, it will repeal backwards with equal and opposite force. I found myself swinging towards glory when the pendulum swung back and hit me so hard it knocked me over. By seeing things as they are, rather than how […]
