“I’ve got it.” This is my most used sentence when someone offers to help me with a task. Though clearly I am struggling and trying to do too much, I think that I can handle things on my own. I am clearly walking in figurative darkness and am blind to
Growing up, my parents had a few phrases they would repeat. One that my mom used frequently was, “There’s never a reason to be unkind.” As a teenager, I found this repeated refrain to be annoying, but I knew the value in it (even if I didn’t want to say

Depend on Him Above All Else Autumn is my favorite time of year. Growing up, my family would take a yearly trip to the mountains to view the changing leaves. We would spend the day hiking and, once we reached the peak, see a sea of red, yellow, and orange
