Twilight

I had heard nothing but good things about this book “Twilight” by Stephenie Meyer. So, trying to be better about reading books for myself, I put it on hold at the library. It came in yesterday so I picked it up in the afternoon. I made the mistake of starting to read it while I [...]

Did you ever see the movie “Pay It Forward”? Wasn’t it amazing what one person could do? Have you ever paid a toll for someone in the car behind you? Doesn’t it make you feel good? Well, yesterday I was reading here and was presented a challenge to look for these little times where we [...]
