Finding Joy in an Ever Changing World

I am so happy to bid adieu to 2021. It was a difficult and unmemorable year.

Sparkle #90: Embrace Change!

Happy Monday folks! The first half of 2015 is almost over, and I feel like it went by way too quickly. July is always special and since it falls in the middle, it’s a good time to take stock of how your year has been shaping up! The fact that it brings with it celebrations on the fourth and my birthday soon after, also add to it’s charm. Over the last two weeks, I have been thinking a lot about change, and how we must learn to embrace it in our lives. My current workplace taught me how to adapt to change quickly, but I admit I am yet to learn…
