Words to Live By for a Relationship

I am sharing a beautiful post from a blog that I found (the author wrote that the public could share this) I believe everything that he wrote and most of what he said is already what my husband and I try to live by.  -------------- This Guy Got Divorced And Said This About His Ex-Wife... Gerald Rogers got divorced after 16 years of marriage. Recently he wrote a eye-opening public confession on his blog... after I saw it, I'm totally with him.

I also know how to use clay and make sculptures too. I would LOVE to get back into sculpting because I only know the creative side of sculpturing and not the "oven" side (If that is how one describes it??) I decided that I did not know anything about sketching with colored pencils and d
