The Art of Growth
Stagnant. Dormant. Idle. Sluggish.
All feelings of a pace I’ve gotten too familiar with.

Dear me,
Yes you,
You are a capable woman. Strong, intelligent, and resilient is your name. You put fires out that are aimlessly burning, and in the same breath have the ability to ignite the most powerful flames.
You are a capable woman. A dog mom, a cheerful wife, and a spiritual pillar to many. You work hard in everything you do even when…read more
