Who’s the minimalist in your life? Maybe it’s your friend, your parents, or even yourself! Rather than giving a gift that may be left in a drawer forgotten over time, the gift of experience is one of the best gifts you can give. When shopping for loved ones who prefer experiences over “stuff,” small, unique, …
When we’re young, we do what feels right to us. As a kid, I napped in the middle of the living room floor because it felt warm and expansive. When the inspiration struck, I’d write a poem, contort myself into a pretzel, or dance an adagio across the kitchen. It never occurred to me that …
Poetry, like so many art forms, has a way of expressing the inexpressible and exposing human nature through musical rhythms, vivid imagery, and powerful metaphors.
