Wounds, Words, And Wisdom – A Humble Life Lesson

Regret, Shame, And How To Move On
This week has been hard on me. What’s been even harder is deciding whether or not I wanted to talk about it publicly. Nothing catastrophic happened.

Yin And Yang – The Balance Of Opposites
Opposites attracting. Contrasting parts. Balance and harmony. The concept of yin and yang is a part of ancient Chinese philosophy that describes how opposite forces are connected and dependent on each other.
