Sometimes, I plug in my phone and it charges immediately. Other times, I have to plug it in five times, turn it backward and forward, wiggle the cord, replug the USB cable, pray, and then it works. The charger has been this way for at least six months.

The Friendships we Choose

During a tumultuous period in my life, I surrounded myself with friends who mirrored my messy behaviors—from enabling to dishonesty. Yet, as I embarked on a journey of personal growth, the dynamics of these friendships began to change. I gravitated toward those who inspired and supported my quest for a better self, and gradually, my circle evolved.

Your feelings matter. Your ability to tune in to your feelings allows you to make the right decisions for your life. Healthy relationships feel good; bad relationships feel bad.
