An Internal Struggle

I’m at the precipice of what I’m going to do next for my career. I’m struggling with what I want to do versus what I need to do. I want to choose a job that I love doing, that gives me back as much as I give it without losing myself to the job itself….

Spring. Newness of beginnings

I’m quietly enjoying a fresh, new day and find myself full of optimism and positive thoughts.
