Ever-Changing Reflection

Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding... It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self. Therefore trust the physician, and drink his remedy in silence and tranquility.
~ Kahlil Gibran

Society arrives late...

Or just me.

I JUST discovered this month-long blog challenge (you probably are familiar with the 26 Days of Gratitude I did in November), and I think I'm up for it! After a week of not blogging, I'm ready to dive back in with a vengeance.

Please meet...

The prompts are below if you feel like joining in... being late to the party with me.
