    By Carol McClain:    @carol_mcclain In 1937 King Edward VIII of England gave up his title and power and glory for love.

    By Carol McClain:  @carol_mcclain I’m going to share the least favorite verse of everyone:  “For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry” Habakkuk 2:3 KJV.

    • Five Ways To Keep Your Resolutions

      “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour and with that one, is what we are doing.” ― Annie Dillard, The Writing Life It's the new year, and of course, you've made resolutions. Do you want to exercise more? Cook healthy meals? Write a book? Have you resolved that this is the year you'd accomplish this? Nearly all of us have already broken our resolves. Why? Because we do what we want to do.
