I've been reflecting lately. It seems to be a growing season, and it seems like reflecting might be a good way to not repeat past mistakes and to figure out how to improve. I notice a habit.

When good hurts
This has been a rough start to the week. I came off a week of camp worn out and a little bit not feeling the best and was slapped right in my exhausted face by Father's Day. It hasn't been pretty. I tried to muscle through Sunday, but I did a terrible job and left… Continue reading When good hurts
