Rethink

I started my day with a devotional, some coffee, and watching some reels. People’s creativity always amazes me. I love watching videos about travel, silly animals, clips from singing shows and TV shows, and anything else that catches my eyes. Then there are videos that make you think a little deeper.

Unlearn

“Every day you must unlearn the ways that hold you back. You must rid yourself of negativity, so you can learn to fly.” Leon Brown We begin learning things the moment we enter this world. As we grow up, we are taught how to act, how to be, right from wrong and so much more. Things today are so much different than they were from when I was growing up. Times have definitely changed. While most of the things we are taught are extremely valuable, there are many things we need to unlearn. Unlearning requires finding new perspectives and finding […]
