Sunday Snippet: The September Resolution (And Birthday!) Edition
Our winner is Joanna Mallozzi Owen! I’ve contacted you on Facebook, Joanna, so watch for a private message from me. I read an article a few years ago that talked about September resolutions–how they’re much easier than New Year’s resolutions because they’re inner resolutions.

Just live my life, love my family and friends, and try…
