Stretching My Boundaries for Receiving
Friends, Some dear friends set up a gofundme for me and asked me to share it here. I'm learning to say, "Yes. Yes. Thank you." I'm saying it a lot. Receiving and Receiving. It helps to know that one day, because my Life is always like this, after I walk this path, I will return the ayni...
