Have you ever taken a bite of something you know is not good for you and then decided ‘what the heck, I have to detox anyway so I might as well have some more’? Most of us have. Really think about that. What is wrong with that picture? Or perhaps think of it another way. […]

I’m thankful for going through detox….. there I said it. Yes… I’m thankful for it! Having gone through it, yet again, I have learned another valuable lesson. I’m not perfect, and I thank god I’m not. Trying to write this with a fuzzy brain, and so many things swirling around in my head, makes […]
