Five Minute Friday: MOTIVATE
No party for me but Kate said… 00:00 It’s a question I’ve been asking myself ever since the big ball dropped Sonday night. Why do I write? Why do I do what I do? I search my heart and my mind, left or right side? Not sure. That left side with the logic and that… [Read More]
