5 Takeaways - Knowing History and Knowing Who We Are
Knowing History and Knowing Who We Are by David McCullough One - Standing where you are today, your future can only be seen through an appreciation for the past - through an understanding of the history of who you are.

Reflecting on Covid-19
Hey guys, so I know I have not been posting like I probably should have been in a while. I’ve honestly been dealing with a lot mentally and kind of emotionally as well 😫😩😖and it has been tough for the past few weeks (maybe month). But I can honestly say life has a funny way of showing you things about yourself and for me it’s different🤓🤔🥰. Like some mornings, I can wake up feeling confident than ever ready to tackle the world 🌎🗺️🥱🤔🧐and then the next, I’m like “ugh, life”🤢🤮😳 and it’s even harder with the pandemic.

Why We Should Never Judge Another Person
This world can feel pretty Fu^%ed up, especially lately, and it can seem like there are more and more assholes coming out of the woodworks. Everywhere we look there seems to be pain and suffering. People trying to get by and so focused on getting to the next thing, next place, and so on. We don't want to be late and it shows, becoming so rushed with our lives.
