The end of the year is upon us and I have no doubt you are seeing the same social media posts that talk about what people have learned, accomplished, and experienced this year. In that spirit, I decided to create my own list of what I accomplished in 2024. I realize this list of accomplishments…

It’s that time of year when the days grow shorter, the nights longer, and the temperatures colder. I have never really been a fan of winter growing up. I don’t enjoy being cold, having it get dark at 4 p.m., and looking at trees that are barren and bare. I never saw beauty in winter.…

2 of the last 5 days I have spent time in a forest. One of them was a new forest that I will be visiting again very soon and one was “my” forest. In the last 2 years I have discovered the transformative power that exists in nature, specifically forests. Spending time in the forest…
