This evening I had a sneak peek into my own sense of self-respect and I’m happy to report that I’m pleased with what I saw! 🙂

So much has happened in the last 24 hours that I think I could write a mini-novel instead of a blog entry. Here’s the Cliff Notes version. 🙂
For me, realizations of growth and change always feel like a miracle and it makes me happy to chronicle them for myself. However, recently I’ve become aware …
