Is it the delirious feeling, the loss of fluids or the medication? 2) The key is finding contentment even when you are exhausted beyondContinue reading “Epiphanies (with a tissue in hand)”

Be a Joy Maker

By: Gabriela Yareliz You know that feeling when your phone changes the words you type through some weird autocorrect you never authorized?
