Natural Highs
A good friend sent me a delightful email yesterday that put a big smile on my face. It was titled "Natural Highs" and I'm sure you (like me) have seen this list before, but it's so good it's worth repeating.
How many Natural Highs have you experienced recently? I've had 25 Natural Highs lately.
