In case you haven’t guessed from the title, I have something to tell… I’m engaged!

I Love Like I’ve Been Hurt
The phrase ‘Dance like no one’s watching, sing like no one’s listening, and love like you’ve never been hurt’ is not something new. Dance like no one’s watching?

Questions

Unintentional Eavesdropping
There are many times when I accidentally hear a conversation I don’t want to hear. For most of the time, I can leave straight away, but there are times when there’s no escape, like a conversation I happened to hear this morning. “You know how some people regret loving someone in the past because it’s…
