To Dream

March 22, 2019March 26, 2019 Stories from the Flock

“In life you either need inspiration or desperation.” -Anthony Robbins Sometime in October, 2018, a 60-year-old woman privately messaged me for the very first time. She said she wanted to speak to a kind and good friend. She was alone. This wasn’t the first time someone just needed a friend to chat with for the […]

“Sisters are different. They heard the sobbing in the darkness. They lived through all your triumphs, all your favorites, all your loves and losses. They have no delusions.
