my heaven on earth - the beach

Another Week on the Beach, My Heaven on Earth

Daily tasks and responsibilities can be overwhelming, thankfully I have the flexibility to get away whenever I need to escape.

My last kick in the gut.

Have you ever had an experience in life where you felt as if you failed? Or maybe you were in a relationship with another and feel you did everything on your part, however you were let down? Do you feel like you failed yourself, or maybe it feels more like life failed you at this…
