“When I Grew Out of…”
“When you feel peaceful joy, that is when you are near truth” ~rumi I smiled when a friend used this phrase in an email recently,“When I grew out of…” It reminded me that, even after the age of 50, we do grow out of things. It let me know that whatever I am going through right […]

Lessons from the Farm
