As I said, I have many, many things to be happy about. A sample list:
1. Wedding planning is in full swing, and is going very well. We have decided to go with the site’s vendor package – we told the owner of the site the kind of wedding we envision, and she [...]
The power of growing dark, on the other hand, will be receptive, more quietly expressive, solitary, right-brained, and inward bound.
