If we took fear out of the equation and every one of us started doing the things we’re best and most passionate at, imagine what a difference we’d make in the world!
Maybe you’ve heard of the 1000 Awesome Things blog. I think that guy is on the right track, so I decided to make my own (much shorter) list.
In the aftermath of last week’s terrible storms, my heart goes out to the folks who lost everything.
