Simply my Thoughts By: Dean Butler
How is that working out for you? I mean really. If you think about it, I mean really think about it. You don’t have to break it down, dissect, and analyze every little detail, even though it would be beneficial to you, a simple pause and thought would suffice. You have people that claim some […]
So many are quick to announce they are grown. They want all to be aware that they are no longer a child and will not tolerate being treated like one. If you look up the definition of grown, It tells us fully grown is mature. Mature is showing the mental and emotional qualities of an […]
