Thought of the Day: Progress Over Stagnation
Be not afraid of going slowly; be only afraid of standing still. Chinese Proverb I’ve read this proverb many times over the years, but late last night I ran across it again and it stopped me.

Spirituality Through My Lens
How important is spirituality in your life? Spirituality is different for everyone. It is defined by our interpretation, experiences, expectations, and the lenses we look through.
