Sometimes, we carry with us an ancient wisdom that has been whispered through generations where we find strength for what we need. Other times, we sense our happiness and sanity have been swept away, and we float rudderless in our space. We wonder if we’re heading in the right direction.
We feel the doom rather than the transformation.During the times when we feel lost, it’s too easy to forget the comfort of good times and wade through the fluff that separates us from the pack. Sounds silly? It’s not.
