Three Bones

I saw this quote in a couple of places recently and thought how helpful it can be to remember. We definitely  need to take the time to dream, and then to take the appropriate action steps to move forward to it. But sometimes we get stuck along the way. Stepping back, taking a breath in […]

Living the No Regrets Lifestyle

I’ve been enjoying the new TV show “Timeless.” It deals with time travel back to certain dates to try to change the present by changing something in the past.
