A To Do List by Rainier Wylde
“Get out in it. Wander. Be lost. Eat real food. Order the steak this time instead of the salad. Or both, why choose? Drink the expensive bubbly. Don’t save it.

A New Prayer
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have you ever prayed, “God, show me how good life gets”? (Mantra from Alyssa Hermann) I wonder what would happen if we did pray this prayer. Thirty days, and then, we all come back here and share what happened.
An Opening
“There’s something humbling about realizing your timeline isn’t real… [it] felt like an expiration date.Now it feels like an opening.” Danielle Bernstein By: Gabriela Yareliz I always want to play a game, but we never have enough people to do so.
