Create Magic
You, Me, We
Do you remember the story of the boy who was taught to fear strangers that when “strangers” were trying to rescue him in the woods, he hid? How many articles have you read to stay away from “toxic people” and “narcissists?” There is such a level of us vs them (division) in our world we …
Change
Sometimes, after going through something extremely unpleasant, the ordeal can end up being a turning point in one’s life.
