Call…Don’t Fall!
While in the rehabilitation hospital after my surgeries in 2016, I was surrounded by signs that read, "Call Don't Fall".

Listen!

I haven't always felt that I deserved the best of things. In a strange way, I felt it was being haughty or selfish to expect the best of everything. Life's journey had whispered and told me I should just be grateful for what I did have. The truth is I wasn't living my "best life"… Continue reading Worthy
