This week I learned: If you cannot be unafraid, be afraid and happy. Quote taken from this beautiful book. It’s so simple, and goes along with what I want for my life, which is to worry less, be in the moment more, and yet it’s something I’ve never seen articulated so well until now. I’m […]
Adding a little lifestyle content to my writing and wandering blog… Someone told me the other day that they “don’t like salads.” My response to that is: that’s because you’re doing it wrong.
