Albert Einstein
Its OK to be different, and in fact it's necessary. Albert Einstein was smart but it was his different-ness that catches my attention.

Some thoughts on stepping out in faith.

The Answer is a Question
My dear friend asked me, “why did you start a blog?” she resurrected the silent voices that kept me from starting a public blog for so long. I didn’t know how to respond, except “ I just want a place to put all my words and thoughts and maybe encourage other people?” I wasn’t sure … Continue reading The Answer is a Question
