My mamas will get this reference, dads you might too. Do y’all ever feel like 'sadness' from the movie Inside Out? “Obsessing over the weight of life’s problems.” The burden of your 9-5 job that you hate, the piles of laundry yet to be folded, the house yet to be cleaned, the broken dishwasher you … Continue reading Choose Joy.
