Life, Laughter, Love...and Shiny Objects
Goodness. This book has helped calm my overactive mind. And this is good for everyone involved.
Sometimes, we just need a little help weeding through our priorities and eliminating the ‘shoulds’ in our lives and schedules, so we can live a life according to our spiritual calling. One that matters. One that leaves us full of light, instead of drained of life.
