Joe and I did not go out for a romantic Valentine’s Day when it fell on the weekend. Why? In short the whole day is overcooked mostly because it falls on a weekend and the heat is on to make it the best Valentine’s Day ever – at least until the next time it falls… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com

“Experience and success don’t give you easy passage through the middle space of struggle. They only grant you a little grace, a grace that whispers, ‘This is part of the process.
