If there is something more than endings that I often find myself dreading, it’s beginnings and coincidentally, they always follow each other.

Self-reflection is something we often do as a way to gauge where we are in our lives and make sure we are not going off track. I often use to say that if anyone points out anything about me, I would probably already know about it because I love being honest about the things I …
