I came across this quote again, “Trust yourself, then you will know how to live.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. That is one of those statements. The kind you read, say hmm, and keep on walking, only to hear it resound in your head, turn around and walk back and look at it again. I wonder […]
“Explore the room you’re in as if you’re seeing it for the first time. Pretend you know nothing. What do you see? Who is the person who lives there?” Well, doggoneit!
