The challenge I face when asked to write an article is coming up with something totally new, original and refreshing.

Upon reflection, I realize, when being completely transparent, is many of the best teachings are already out there. I am a conglomeration of the wisdom of many great people who have gone before me.

That fact humbles me and also inspires me to let you know I am sharing from Therese Lisieux. Her thoughts are not my original thoughts but they are so interwoven in my life, my soul, and the way I aspire to live that they have now become mine.

My life and yours are so different...
