The birds showed no desire to leave, and they are, apparently, harder to herd than cats. And for t...

Life is a journey not a destination and everyone has their own journey. • Tell your loved ones that you love them. Tell them often, show it and mean it. You just never know when that last time will be. • Always keep learning and moving forward. Life will throw things at you, but keep moving forward and learning. Not everyone will take the same path and that is ok. • Do no...
