Where do you feel at home? I started wondering this because, well I don't know, I'm just curious. Most people consider home where they grew up. I never felt the place I grew up was home, it was just where I was born. I realized for myself there are three...

Connecting the thoughts This is how I am striving to live my life right now, intentionally. Some days look prettier than others. I think we mostly live our lives unintentionally. They didn't teach us in grade school the importance of living intentionally....
