About the Author
At the end of the day, there are a lot of things that don't matter. Unfortunately, those things tend to shadow the things that do. Writing, for me, is reflection that helps me focus on the things that matter the most. At the end of the day, it isn't important that the laundry isn't done, or that the bill is late, or that the dog ate my shoe. What does matter is that we all have a place to lay our head. And we have each other. Even the dog.
