What motivates you? I have heard of a Japanese cleaning method. Keep the stuff close to your heart and if it doesn’t resonate you can discard.

What is a word you feel that too many people use? After a month of no rains, woke up today to thunderstorms and lightning! Summer time rains feel good as the smell of the soil makes us feel things. For me it is nostalgic. I can associate with different things from my past. We have…
