What does the word Beautiful truly mean?
What does the word Beautiful truly mean? What does the word beautiful truly mean? Beautiful can mean so many different things to different people.

Why 'Speechless' Is a Must-See Show for the Whole Family
When I heard about “Speechless,” I was excited. Why? Because one of the characters in the show, JJ has cerebral palsy like me. Micah Fowler is not an able-bodied actor playing someone with CP. That is often the case when it comes to characters with disabilities. He actually has cerebral palsy. It is so refreshing to see on TV. Hopefully we will see more of this sooner rather than later.

To people that have to let go of a person or people in your life
To people that have to let go of a person or people in your life- About 6 months ago, I for the first time in my life had to do something I had never done before. I let go of a friendship.

This Is For The People Who Say ‘You’re Getting Old’
Guess what? Yes, I am and so is everyone else. So what? It’s not so bad. Yes, you get older. Everything aches, your hair might be starting to turn gray, and you’re not as young as you used to be.
