    coral-roseMy mini meltdown yesterday was not just about being  jilted by another realtor who wanted to take the commission all for himself. Though it did take the wind out of me a bit, I have learned to stomach it.

    Yesterday also happened to be the day that some trademarks were about to be abandoned if I didn’t extend them. I had registered some trademarks with my sister two years ago when we started our dreams.

Home is where the true heart is.  And from here is where the next generation can experience and see a better world because they themselves will create it, hopefully.
