I found myself GRATEFUL when my sister-in-law gave me an extra cutting board she had when she was moving because she had too many. I found myself GRATEFUL that I did the work with my husband to create an unshakable love and unleashed passion so we were rock solid during that time! 95 RELATIONSHIPS I began my journey into personal development, because it was the only thing that felt great to me!
