The Last Sunset
The sun is faithful and returns the next day to greet us. Sometimes there in its full glory and other times hidden by the clouds, however the sun is always there reminding us to journey onwards.
Surrender
I have always taught my son the most important thing to do in life is to keep moving forward. There is nothing you can do about what has happened, you can only influence and plan for the future, and today is the most important thing that you have. Sometimes it is hard to do that. […]
