The Connections and the Miracle of “Being”…. I can remember back to that night that, for whatever the reason, I decided to go to my high school’s basketball game.  I saw a friend who was with his girlfriend and her sisters.  He and I struck up a conversation and before you knew it, we wereContinue reading “The Connections and the Miracle of “Being”….”
