For me, this is faith and family.  Today's Poem Today's poem is about embracing something deep inside that was there...

I Quit My Job

  Happy Tuesday! Hello, hello, hello, and happy Tuesday! Today is a new day to be able to focus on what really matters in life, which again, for me, is faith and family.
