Let the wrecking ball swing – An epiphany

An epiphany is tantamount to the sweetest melody. When that chord vibrates, it has the propensity to shake the very foundation of what we consider sacred. Ourselves. I’ve realized that I must have the wherewithal to let the demolition ensue so that I can build anew. The fear of losing who I am, who IContinue reading “Let the wrecking ball swing – An epiphany”
